Domaine Auguste Clape, an essential benchmark of the Rhône Valley, reigns over the Cornas appellation. Rooted for several generations on the steep slopes that define the singularity of this terroir, this family estate has built its reputation on hard work and a profound respect for the land. Today, Pierre Clape, accompanied by his son Olivier, continues to bring to life the legacy of Auguste Clape, an iconic figure whose imprint remains indelible. The estate crafts red wines of rare depth and elegance, masterful expressions of the Syrah grape on these distinctive granitic soils. The estate’s Cornas is a flagship cuvée, sought after for its power and complexity—a wine built for aging. To discover the Clape style in its youth, the Renaissance cuvée offers a more supple profile while retaining the estate’s signature. It is said that the Clape family played an essential role in keeping the Cornas appellation afloat at a time when it was less recognized, a testament to their commitment to this unique terroir. The Côtes du Rhône and the Saint-Péray complete a range that is sure to captivate lovers of authentic wines.
