As a master of the Cornas appellation, Franck Balthazar crafts wines of profound ruggedness and purity from the region's steep, granitic terraces. The 'Cuvée Casimir Balthazar' is sourced from younger vines and specific parcels that offer a slightly more approachable, yet unmistakably classic, expression of the appellation. Following organic farming principles, the Syrah is fermented with whole clusters and aged in older oak demi-muids to allow the granitic terroir to shine. The wine is powerful and aromatic, delivering intense notes of dark plum, olive tapenade, and smoked meat, framed by firm, gripping tannins. Varietal: Syrah Appellation: Cornas, Northern Rhône, France Farming: Organic Practices Style: Red. Dry, powerful and aromatic
