2020	Domaine Alain Voge	Cornas Les Vieilles Fontaines	A burly, powerful red, with pleasing chewiness and savory intensity. Offers a beam of mulled currant, fig and black licorice built around a smoldering iron note. Shows impressive structure and finesse, with a tug of tar and savory density on the salty finish, which is marked by hints of grilled herbs, juniper and aniseed. Drink now through 2030. 225 cases made, 17 cases imported.	Wine Spectator	94		2024-12-05
2021	Domaine Alain Voge	Saint-Peray Fleur de Crussol	Not yet bottled and the flagship from Voge, the 100% Marsanne 2021 Saint-Péray Fleur De Crussol offers impressive depth and richness, as well as complexity, in its stone fruits, marmalade, and spicy aromas and flavors. It's balanced, it has plenty of mid-palate depth, and I love its overall purity and precision. It's certainly up there with the top wines in the vintage, but this cuvée always demands a few years of bottle age to show its full potential.	Jeb Dunnuck	91-93+		2024-12-05
2022	Domaine Alain Voge	Saint-Peray Fleur de Crussol	Honeyed orange, rose, spice, and crushed stone-like mineral notes all emerge from the 2022 Saint-Péray Fleur De Crussol, a nicely balanced, medium-bodied effort that has good acidity, a structure, focused mouthfeel, and outstanding length. A beautiful wine, it will benefit from a year in bottle and I suspect still be drinking well in 2032.	Jeb Dunnuck	92-94		2024-12-05
2021	Domaine Alain Voge	Cornas Les Chailles	A meaty, sanguine version, with a lot of floral perfume as well. Black cherry and boysenberry flavors merge with notes of iron and well-integrated toasty oak spice. Supple and well-knit, with tangy acidity driving tension and length. Best from 2025 through 2035. 1,200 cases made, 150 cases imported.	Wine Spectator	93		2024-12-05
2022	Domaine Alain Voge	Cornas Les Chailles	Cassis, blue fruits, sappy garrigue, pepper, and violet notes define the 2022 Cornas Les Chailles from Voge. Medium to full-bodied, it has a pure, elegant mouthfeel, beautiful tannins, and the vintage's ripe yet lively, focused style. It's unquestionably an outstanding Cornas and I suspect this beauty will offer pleasure right out of the gate.	Jeb Dunnuck	91-93+		2024-12-05
2022	Domaine Alain Voge	Cornas Les Vieilles Vignes	Darker currants, cassis, sappy flowers, violets, and peppery bouquet garni notes emerge from the 2022 Cornas Les Vieilles Vignes, another powerful, full-bodied Cornas with a great mid-palate, ripe, building tannins, and a great finish. At this point, it’s more similar than not to the Vieilles Fontaines, if not a touch richer.	Jeb Dunnuck	95-97		2024-12-05
2022	Domaine Alain Voge	Cornas Les Vieilles Fontaines	The tiny production 2022 Cornas Les Vieilles Fontaines comes from the site of the estate’s oldest Syrah vines, an 80-year-old vineyard planted in granite soil. It's a sensational looking barrel sample that's going to rank with the top handful of wines in the appellation. Cassis, blueberries, spring flowers, game, and liquid violet notes are just some of its nuances, and it hits the palate with full-bodied richness, a layered, broad mouthfeel, and ripe yet certainly present tannins. It's going to need 3-5 years of cellaring but will evolve for two decades.	Jeb Dunnuck	95-97		2024-12-05
2021	Domaine Alain Voge	Cornas Chapelle Saint-Pierre	The 2021 Cornas Chapelle Saint Pierre is upfront and expressive, with lots of red and blue fruits as well as candied violets, bouquet garni, and peppery, mineral-driven aromas and flavors. It's medium to full-bodied, has a round, layered, seamless texture, beautiful tannins, and a great finish. It's another remarkable 2021 from this estate that's going to have 15 years of overall longevity.	Jeb Dunnuck	93		2024-12-05
2021	Domaine Alain Voge	Cornas Les Vieilles Vignes	Already bottled, the 2021 Cornas Les Vieilles Vignes is a tiny production cuvée that comes from a single parcel of very old vines. It's more inward and reserved, with beautiful darker, almost blue fruits as well as some gamey meats, liquid violets, ground pepper, and obvious mineral-like aromas and flavors. Concentrated, medium to full-bodied, and beautifully balanced on the palate, it plays in the fresher, elegant style of the vintage yet has plenty of mid-palate depth, ripe tannins, and a great finish. It should benefit from 2-4 years of bottle age and evolve gracefully over the following 10-15 years. It's impressive.	Jeb Dunnuck	94		2024-12-05
2021	Domaine Alain Voge	Cornas Les Chailles	Juicy red and blue fruits, spring flowers, violet, and hints of iron and black pepper all emerge from the 2021 Cornas Les Chailles, a medium-bodied Cornas from this terrific producer that's balanced, has remarkable purity, fine tannins, and outstanding length.
