Tasting notes
Fermented with 25% whole bunches, this Cornas from Stéphane Robert evokes a complex, elegant bouquet of mulberries, blueberries, flowers and spices mingled with notes of iris. Medium to full-bodied, round and layered, it's supple and charming with a sweet core of fruit, soft tannins and a saline finish. This is a real success.

About this wine
Domaine du Tunnel stands as a benchmark producer in Cornas, one of the Northern Rhône's most prestigious appellations. This iconic estate crafts elegant, age-worthy Syrah wines that capture the essence of steep granite slopes and continental climate. Their winemaking philosophy emphasizes minimal intervention and respect for terroir, allowing the unique character of Cornas to shine through each vintage.
This red wine expresses the classic profile of quality Cornas Syrah: herbaceous and earthy with fresh, ripe tannins and a complex structure that rewards careful cellaring. At 14% ABV, it balances power with refinement, a hallmark of Northern Rhône winemaking. The wine pairs beautifully with grilled vegetables, mushroom-based dishes, and charcuterie, while its structure also suits lamb, beef, venison, and duck. It's equally at home with aged Comté or Gruyère cheese and aromatic, herb-forward cuisine.
Whether sourced for a wine collection, fine dining establishment, or special occasion, Domaine du Tunnel's Cornas represents serious red wine craftsmanship from one of France's most respected regions.
