Le Domaine Balthazar, fondé en 1931 par Casimir Balthazar, est un vignoble emblématique de l'appellation Cornas, dans la vallée du Rhône. La continuité de la production a été assurée par René Balthazar jusqu'en 2002, année où son fils Franck a pris les rênes du domaine familial. Passionné par la viticulture biologique, Franck Balthazar a rapidement su la direction qu'il voulait donner à son domaine. Admirateur du classicisme et de l'élégance des vins de Pierre-Marie Clape, et fervent défenseur de la franchise et du naturel des vins de Thierry Allemand, Franck représente une alliance réussie de ces deux grands styles de Cornas. Depuis le millésime 2010, le domaine est en conversion vers l'agriculture biologique. Franck Balthazar privilégie des méthodes naturelles et artisanales, travaillant les sols à la pioche ou au treuil, sans herbicides ni pesticides. À la cave, les vinifications sont traditionnelles avec des vendanges entières, des fermentations à partir de levures indigènes, de longues macérations, et un élevage de 12 à 18 mois en demi-muids âgés, en limitant au maximum l'apport de soufre. Franck Balthazar est largement reconnu et apprécié par les amateurs et les critiques pour la qualité remarquable de ses vins. Son engagement envers des pratiques durables et son respect pour la tradition viticole font de ses cuvées des exemples authentiques de la viticulture artisanale. Le domaine, situé sur des coteaux escarpés avec des sols granitiques, cultive principalement la Syrah, cépage emblématique de Cornas, reflétant parfaitement le terroir unique de la région. La philosophie de Franck repose sur une approche minimaliste et respectueuse de la nature. En travaillant manuellement et en utilisant des pratiques écologiques, il cherche à maintenir l'équilibre naturel du vignoble et à produire des vins qui expriment véritablement leur terroir. Les vendanges entières et les fermentations avec des levures indigènes permettent de préserver les caractéristiques originelles des raisins, tandis que les longues macérations et l'élevage en demi-muids apportent structure et complexité aux vins. Les vins du Domaine Balthazar sont connus pour leur profondeur, leur équilibre et leur capacité de vieillissement. Chaque bouteille raconte l'histoire du terroir de Cornas, avec des arômes de fruits noirs, d'épices et de minéraux, caractéristiques des sols granitiques de la région. Franck Balthazar, par son engagement et sa passion, continue de faire honneur à l'héritage familial tout en apportant une touche personnelle et contemporaine à la production viticole de Cornas.

Who are we ?

Created in 2010, Vinograf was taken over in July 2024 by Clara & Baptiste. With their experience with Marée Haute, they work to perpetuate Vinograf's strong commitments: a careful selection of established or novice artisan winemakers, all driven by the concern for excellence in their practices, in the magnification of terroirs and the search for authenticity of taste.

Several specifications correspond to these names. If we very often hear about sulphites, rightly accused of giving a headache, many other products can be used in the composition of so-called conventional wines.
Here is an overview of the different organic, biodynamic and natural specifications:
The organic specifications (AB label) prohibit any use of synthetic chemicals in the vineyards and in the winery. However, it allows some oenological crutches during winemaking. Sulfites, for example, are tolerated up to 100 mg/L for red wines and 150 mg/L for whites.

In biodynamics (Demeter or Biodyvin label), the winemaker not only works without synthetic chemicals, but also takes into account the lunar calendar for all the operations he carries out. He will also use biodynamic preparations (fermented horn dung, silica, plant herbal tea, etc.) to strengthen the vines. Overall, the winegrower seeks to include the cultivation of the vine in a global environment. Sulphites can go up to 70 mg/L for reds and 90 mg/L for whites.

In natural wine (Vin Method Nature label), the specifications specify the use of organic grapes, fermenting naturally using native yeasts (as in biodynamics). Natural wines see no input during all vinification and aging. Only minimum doses of SO2 are permitted (30 mg/L maximum), and must be mentioned by the winemaker. No brutal filtration or wine alteration techniques are permitted. We also find the name SAINS Wines which aims to completely prohibit the use of sulphites.

We strive to offer you wines from artisan wines, from estates on a human scale and often family-owned. And that's why we take the time to travel across France from vineyard to vineyard in search of these natural wines that thrill us.
We are particularly keen to introduce you to the new winegrowers of tomorrow who work tirelessly to offer us magnificent wines.
We want to highlight them, and allow them to have greater, clearer visibility and wish to accompany them to you!
