The family farms around 8.5 hectares across the steep granite hillsides of Cornas and neighbouring Saint-Péray, with the estate now run by Auguste's son Pierre and grandson Olivier following Auguste's death in 2018.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA Saint-Péray white typically blended from around 80% Marsanne and 20% Roussanne, grown on south-facing granite slopes just south of Cornas. Expect a fine, mineral white with aromas of white flowers, ripe pear, honeycomb and mirabelle plum, carried by a touch of flinty gunflint reduction. The palate is elegant and well-defined, with a creamy texture balanced by bright, saline freshness and a long, pure finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHand-harvested on steep terraces.

Auguste Clape was the first vigneron to bottle his own Cornas, and the estate, now run by his grandson Olivier, has stayed true to a traditional, low-intervention approach across more than half a century.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFruit is hand-harvested from a patchwork of old-vine parcels across the appellation, fermented with native yeasts and whole-bunch inclusion before maturation in large, well-seasoned oak foudres. The result is a Cornas of remarkable depth and longevity, with little of the new-oak gloss seen at other estates in the appellation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe wine shows aromas of dark plum, blackberry, violet, black olive, peppered meat and crushed stone. The palate is full bodied with serious grip, layered with savoury herbs, salty minerality and dark fruit, finishing long and brooding. Built to age for decades, it is the unmistakable voice of Cornas in its most classical form.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Domaine Auguste Clape","offers":[{"title":"Each","offer_id":52541453992223,"sku":"10028372_B","price":358.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0785\/8418\/5119\/files\/Domaine_20Auguste_20Clape_20Cornas_20750ml.webp?v=1778729398"}],"url":"https:\/\/barrelandbatch.com.au\/collections\/domaine-auguste-clape.oembed","provider":"Barrel \u0026 Batch","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
