Cornas threat

August 29th, 2007 | Category: Wine News

Yes, I know, that is old news now - but it is still relevant. I was alerted a month or two ago by a couple of readers for some crazy sounding development plans that could take out a substantial chunk of the Cornas vineyards in the Northern Rhone of France.

Now, as
most of you know, Cornas rocks. And there’s only 100 hectares of it altogether. So development plans threatening at least 3.4 hectares sound very daft indeed.

You can read all about it on Jon Livingstone-Learmonth’s site here. Pictured is a Syrah vine in Cornas.
