Paul Jaboulet Aîné’s Cornas “Reynard” is a prestigious and confidential cuvée from the northern Rhône Valley, produced on a terraced granite hillside overlooking the village of Cornas and bordered by majestic cedar trees. The vines, planted in 1944 on thin, acidic sandy-gravel soils, born from granite and saprolite from the primary base, provide an ideal anchor for the Syrah. This 100% Syrah seduces with an intense nose of blackcurrant, blackberry, graphite, black pepper and smoked herbs. The attack is full and velvety, with fine tannins and remarkable persistence, carried by a mineral freshness that extends the finish. A rare cuvée with strong aging potential, “Reynard” is ideally enjoyed with characterful meats, game or dishes in sauce with deep aromas.

Founded in 1834 on the Hermitage hill in Tain-l’Hermitage, the Paul Jaboulet Aîné estate oversees an exceptional winemaking heritage, bringing together the most renowned terroirs of the northern Rhône Valley. Today, it oversees 105 hectares of vineyards, stretching from Cornas to Côte-Rôtie, in the heart of the most prestigious appellations of the northern Rhône Valley.

Thanks to precise vinification and meticulous work in the vineyards, the estate crafts tailor-made vintages that accurately express the richness and diversity of their terroirs of origin. Since 2016, all of its wines have been certified organic, demonstrating a strong commitment to quality and respect for the environment.

Paul Jaboulet Aîné thus embodies the quintessence of the great wines of the Rhône Valley, between tradition, high standards and excellence.
