The Winery

Thierry Allemand

Thierry Allemand’s wines are one of Cornas' most expressive wines. Thierry Allemand did not come from a family of winemakers but rather he created his own domaine after learning winemaking techniques from apprenticing for Cornas legends Robert Michel and Noël Verset. While working alongside these two masters, he acquired his own land on extremely steep slopes on an overgrown vineyard. He patiently rehabilitated the vines to make them produce some of the highest quality grapes in Cornas.

He learned from some of the best, and worked very hard to become so meticulous in his techniques which have paid dividends as his beautifully composed wines are becoming more popular each year.

Tasting Notes

WS95
Offers bright, almost piercing lavender and iron notes backed by racy plum, blackberry and boysenberry fruit flavors. Lots of underlying acidity extends the racy finish, with echoes of minerality, while the dark, muscular fruit expands in the glass, showing a weight and dimension that sets this apart. Best from 2010 through 2022. 500 cases made.
