Clape's outstanding 2001 Cornas—while still at its apogee 20 years after the vintage—should nevertheless be consumed over the next several years, as notes of leather and dried leaves are impinging on the vibrant red fruit. Still full-bodied, almost creamy in feel, with a luxurious plushness in the mouth, it finishes long and harmonious. Just a terrific effort.

This is really starting to develop nicely, with a racy, iron- and chalk-loaded spine that drives the mouthwatering red currant, damson plum and cherry pit notes. The long, driven finish lets the iron note take a lengthy encore. After two hours, this was continuing to open up while showing more polish around the edges.

Strange slightly rubbery aromas, then opening up to meaty marmite (yeast extract), though also a little stemmy. Firm, thick tannins and fine acidity. Moderate length.

The Auguste Clape estate is a reference in the Cornas appellation. Located in the southern part of the Rhône Valley, the red wines are 100% Syrah. Auguste Clape's Cornas wines are renowned for their straight, racy character and certain sobriety. Aged for 2 years in concrete tanks then in old foudres, these are wines built for aging. Since 1955, the Auguste Clape estate has been producing wines at the highest level, notably by adopting sustainable vineyard practices. Pierre-Marie Clape, Auguste's son who gained experience at Domaines Tempier and Le Vieux Télégraphe, has been working at the estate since 1988. He was joined in 2002 by his own son Olivier.

Only 2 cuvées are produced: Cornas with vines aged 40 to 90 years and Renaissance with younger vines.

Area: 8.8 ha; Production: 30,000 bottles/year; Average vine age: 45 years; Red grape varieties: Syrah; White grape varieties: Roussanne, Marsanne
