Good to Know: Domaine Les Alexandrins is a Northern Rhône estate founded in 2009 by viticulturist Alexandre Caso and winemaker Guillaume Sorrel, later joined by Nicolas Jaboulet in 2015. Together, they focus on producing terroir-driven wines from 12 hectares of old-vine Syrah in Crozes-Hermitage and Saint-Joseph, some of which are over 70 years old. The vineyards are farmed sustainably, and the winemaking follows traditional methods—hand harvesting, cold maceration, gentle extraction, and ageing in used barrels—to preserve purity and elegance. Their wines, particularly the Crozes-Hermitage, are known for their finesse, vibrant fruit, and refined structure, reflecting the combined heritage and expertise of three Rhône wine families.

Maison Les Alexandrins Cornas 2022 is a bold and expressive Syrah crafted from the high-altitude “Les Eygats” vineyard, located over 250 meters above sea level on decomposed granite terraces in Cornas. The 2022 growing season featured a hot, dry summer balanced by timely rains, leading to early harvesting in mid-August to retain freshness. In the cellar, the wine underwent a cold pre-fermentation maceration, followed by around 20 days of fermentation with a mix of pump-overs and punch-downs, then aged for 15 months in used oak barrels. The result is a deep garnet wine with intense aromas of dark berries, licorice, wild herbs, and a touch of smoke, leading to a rich, vibrant palate with silky tannins, juicy fruit, and a long, structured finish. It is a refined and age-worthy expression of Cornas Syrah, best enjoyed between 2024 and 2034.

This wine pairs well with grilled red meats such as steaks and lamb.
