Julien Pilon’s 2019 L’Élégance du Caillou lives up to its name. This is Cornas that keeps its wild heart but wraps it in elegance—structured, savory Syrah that’s built on granite bones but polished with care.

The nose is full of blackberries, violets, crushed rock, and smoky herbs. On the palate, it’s deep and layered, with firm but fine tannins, dark fruit concentration, and a mineral streak that gives it real lift. There’s no excess oak, no over-extraction—just pure fruit, stony texture, and a long, savory finish.

While many Cornas wines go big and brooding, Pilon leans into nuance and freshness. It's a wine for lovers of Syrah with tension—powerful, but never heavy-handed.

Perfect for: braised short ribs, grilled lamb, wild mushroom dishes, or cellaring alongside Saint-Joseph and Côte-Rôtie favorites.

Professional Reviews

Antonio Galloni

AG 92
"Dark ruby. Intense cherry and dark berry aromas are complemented by hints of cracked pepper and pungent flowers. Lush and broad in the mouth, offering pliant bitter cherry, blueberry, violet pastille and spicecake flavors that deepen and turn sweeter on the back half. Supple tannins build on a very long, spice-accented finish that leaves behind dark chocolate and smoky bacon flourishes." -Josh Raynolds
