Welcome to La Geynale—Vincent Paris’s crown jewel and one of the most revered plots in all of Cornas. This is Syrah from a sun-drenched, south-facing slope in the legendary Reynard sector, where century-old vines cling to impossibly steep granite hillsides. Think of it as Syrah’s natural amphitheatre—ancient, dramatic, and intensely expressive.
Made with minimal intervention and 100% whole clusters, the wine ferments naturally after a week-long cold soak and matures for a year in used oak barrels (no new wood—just pure terroir). The result? A brooding, black-fruited powerhouse packed with spice, roasted coffee, cooked berries, and a mineral tension that could keep you up at night.
Despite its muscular structure and rich tannins, La Geynale stays fresh, elegant, and balanced. It’s like a heavyweight champion with ballet training—power and grace in every sip. This isn’t your pop-and-pour Tuesday night red. This is a wine to lay down and treasure, rewarding the patient with decades of complexity.
Only 4,000–5,000 bottles a year, and each one is a time capsule of Cornas greatness.
Cellar it. Worship it. Thank us later.
