Vincent Paris Cornas La Geynale 2021

Vincent Paris, hailing from Cornas in the Northern Rhône Valley, is celebrated for his outstanding Syrah wines. His winemaking journey began in 1997, starting modestly in a small garage before he established his own facility in 2001. Most of his vineyards, some of which are over a century old, were inherited from his grandfather, with additional parcels acquired from his uncle, the renowned vigneron Robert Michel. Today, his estate spans around 8 hectares, with 6.5 hectares in Cornas and 1.5 hectares in Saint-Joseph.

Dedicated to organic farming, Vincent Paris integrates biodynamic practices throughout his vineyards. He carefully prunes his vines to maintain just four grape bunches per vine, focusing the plant's energy to enhance grape quality. In his winemaking process, he employs a mix of stainless steel vats and both barrique and demi-muid barrels, fermenting with native yeasts. To preserve the authentic character of his wines, he deliberately avoids using new oak.
