The style of the wine has drastically changed since the Ooka era. Previously, the wines could be excellent however could also suffer from bottle variation. Jonathan has made it his goal to change that while also working in the most natural way possible, both in the vineyard and the cellar. He aims for wines that taste true to the Cornas terroir of deep, dark Syrah with savory, peppery notes and an incredible amount of depth. Now firmly in the hands of this rising winemaker star, Domaine de la Grande Colline is an ascendant property that is already making its mark in the world of wine lovers. With such attention to detail and the utmost care put into all this estate’s bottlings, Jonathan Jacquart’s next moves will be ones to watch.

100% Syrah. High-altitude, cooler-climate vineyard within Cornas with well-integrated biodiversity. Hand harvested. Native yeast fermentation with whole clusters. Daily punchdowns and pump overs.
