Franck Balthazar – Cornas Sans Soufre Ajouté 2020 is a purist Syrah from biodynamic cultivation, vinified entirely without added sulfur. The wine comes from old vines in Cornas and is spontaneously fermented exclusively with natural yeast – an authentic expression of terroir and craftsmanship.
The 2020 vintage displays intense aromas of dark berries, violets, black pepper, and raw meat. On the palate, it is powerful, juicy, and precise, with vibrant freshness, polished tannins, and stony minerality. The absence of sulfur lends it particular vibrancy and transparency—a true natural wine with depth.
Ideal for lovers of unadulterated, natural Rhône wines with character, energy, and provenance. Drink now with aeration, with potential until 2030+.
