MATTHIEU BARRET,
France, Rhône, Cornas

Matthieu Barret is a young and enthusiastic winegrower who settled in Cornas in 1998. He practices biodynamic viticulture, obtaining very low yields (23 hl/ha) and extraordinary quality. He describes his wines as being 100% grape, with a very low sulphite addition. His wines are extremely clean, and, true to the Cornas character, their tannins are not as rustic as in others from the area.
