Information
In 1958, Alain Voge joined his father working the small family farm and decided abandon polyculture and devote the entire land to the growing of vines. The northern Rhône appellation Cornas owes much to this winemaker who has contributed greatly to putting this unknown appellation on the map. Today, the family has vines in several appellations: Cornas (6.5 ha), Saint-Péray (4ha), Saint-Joseph and Côtes-du-Rhône (red). 13 hectares are tended to using organic and biodynamic prinipals (certified since 2013).
The property was associated with Albéric Mazoyer, the former technical directer of Chapoutier, from 2004 to 2018, and with Lionel Fraisse from 2018, who stepped in particularly after the sad passing of Alain Voge in 2020.
His Syrahs are world renowned, as are his whites and sparkling wines from Saint-Péray. The concentrated and lively wines wines can be savoured both in their youth and after ageing. A stand-out producer from the region.
A combination of four plots, Harmonie is a true reflection of the personality of the Marsanne grape variety. It comes from thirty-year old vines planted on colluvium mixed with granitic, clay and chalk-rich outcrops. Alain Voge harvests grapes manually, vinifies the grapes at low temperatures in concrete vats and allows malolactic fermentation to take place. The wine is then aged on fine lees, still in concrete vats, for ten months. As a result, the wine is taut, fresh but vibrant, generous and very aromatic. A marvel to enjoy with fish or sea-food platters.
