Ferraton Cornas Les Eygats

Ferraton Cornas Les Eygats is a distinguished expression of Syrah from the northern Rhône Valley, known for its powerful structure and intense minerality. Sourced from the steep slopes of the Cornas appellation, Les Eygats benefits from granite soils and a long history of traditional winemaking, including biodynamic practices. This wine typically undergoes extended aging in French oak barrels, resulting in profound depth and complexity. Expect a concentrated profile of black fruit, particularly blackberry and blackcurrant, interwoven with classic notes of crushed black pepper, licorice, and violets. The tannins are firm and built for the long haul, suggesting excellent aging potential. This wine demands rich food pairings, making it an ideal match for slow-roasted lamb or strong game meats.
