Domaine Guy Farge, Reynard, Aop Cornas, Red
Thomas Farge is the fourth generation of his family to be involved in viticulture. His father Guy started bottling his own wines in 2007 rather than sending the grapes off to the local Cave de Tain-l’Hermitage co-operative. Now Thomas has 17 hectares spread over Cornas,Saint-Joseph and Saint-Peray and makes a number of both red and white wines. The results, as with all of Thomas’ wines, are pure balanced expressions of his terroir. These wines are from grapes raised mostly on Mount Sainte-Epine, a location
