Cornas La Cabane des Chasseurs Lorient 2022 is a Syrah from a hillside vineyard in the northern Rhône Valley. This wine is crafted by the husband-and-wife team of Laure and Dimitri, who focus on traditional methods and minimal intervention. Their commitment to organic viticulture significantly enhances the expression of the terroir. The 2022 vintage showcases grapes sourced from a 0.3ha parcel of terraced vines, planted on granite. A small portion is destalked and aged in a mix of stainless steel and neutral containers. The flavour profile includes dark fruits, earthy notes and a balanced acidity, leading to a long finish.
