Vinous on VINCENT PARIS

Titre

Vincent Paris's wines, which are always bottled on the relatively early side, are deceptively forward on release (except for the La Geynale) but I have had great luck holding on to them, even from generally less age-worthy vintages like 2012 and 2011...Given Paris’s connection to his uncle, the retired and semi-legendary Robert Michel, from whom he acquired many of his holdings, famously the La Geynale, many people will no doubt compare his wines to those that Michel made. Paris’s wines are quite different, with more polish and greater immediate appeal, but no new oak is used here, and while the wines are indeed fruit-driven, they are by no means made in an international style.

James Suckling, April 2023


The moment you move the glass close to your nose the extraordinary perfume of this great Cornas is overwhelming. Deep, meaty and smoky, yet brimming with blue fruits and violets, how can you resist? What grace and elegance this has on the pristine and light-footed palate. Really concentrated, but only medium-bodied (13% alcohol) this is a masterpiece of filigree at the breathtakingly fresh and precise finish.

The WIne Front,


No mistaking this for anything other than Northern Rhone! Incredibly vivid purple colour also of note. Fresh blackberry, charcuterie, black pepper, dried herbs and flowers. It’s medium-bodied, firm almost frisky ‘glassy’ acidity, smoky and meaty, crushed rocks, distinctly tangy, but encased in boysenberry and fresh picked blackberry. Vibrant. Tight and slate-y to close. You have to like them gamey and spicy, but excellent wine here, in that sort of style.

James Suckling, November 2023


This is my dream of Cornas in a glass. Incredibly deep, blueberry, smoky and peppery nose with a twist of mystery. Stunning concentration and complexity on the plush and pristine palate, the enormous mineral freshness powering the extremely long, complete finish.
