Rhône Valley, France
Auguste Clape
Auguste Clape is one of the most respected names in Cornas, the tiny northern Rhône appellation famous for pure Syrah. 'Le Vin des Amis' — the wine for friends — is his more affordable, everyday bottling: honest, earthy, and made with the same care as his famous flagship.
