Domaine Clape’s eight hectares of stacked terrace vineyards, scattered across the Rhone Valley, grow on predominantly granitic soils; although known for their Syrah, this varietal Marsanne is out of this world.

One third of the juice is raised in oak foudres, one third in steel tanks and one third in cement vats for a minimum of 6 months prior to blending and bottling.

Auguste Clape produces unquestionably the finest wines in Cornas from his minute cellars located on the RN98 in the middle of the appellation. He has 11 acres of vineyards the majority being superbly well sited on the steep hillside surrounding the village. The average vine age is high with some being over 100 years old.
