Cornas AOC Syrah 2012

Very nice Cornas and frankly a crazy value from Fass selections. That said I’m okay that I didn’t buy a case - this is quite ready to go. Still get some good olive on the nose. Wonderful mouthfeel with only dark fruit, earth, etc. Finish could use a bit more acid for my taste but this is still very nice - and a great pairing with the annual homemade cassoulet. — 2 months ago

Cornas Syrah 2021

Lyle Fass
9.6

2021 is so classic in the Rhone. Nose is red berries, black berries and very elegant and restrained. Very mineral. So subtle and beautiful. Palate is so round, understated, fresh and pure. This is stunning. Perfumed and so elegant now with air. Some violets. What elegant and refined tannins. This is utterly classic and 21 is as classic in the Rhone as it is in Burgundy. This is blowing me away. Now black olive tapenade, blueberry, and stunning florals. Really compelling wine. Palate is so fresh, elegant and rainwater like. Just such a unique expression in a unique vintage. Really wow stuff and so different than the usual black fruited, opulent and inky Rhone wines of 2019/2020/2017/2018. Nose is so gorgeous. Subtle. Palate is so compact. Wonderful.

Overnight this has gotten crazy. The most subtle and beautiful nose ever. Florals and berries that are so so precise. Wow. Palate has perfect balance and poise. Stunning purity and freshness and not at all squishy and over the top. So elegant. 9.6.

Cuvée Traditionnelle Saint-Péray White Rhone Blend 2014

Delectable seems to think this is red and not white, odd since there is no red wine in the AOC, but... Who cares because it's delicious.
Fenel, pepper and underripe pear and honeydew but way more savory than fruity. Big acidic structure but well balanced and just beautiful. Awesome.

I had similar problems. First I even photoshopped the picture, inserting a text to describe the problem, like wrong colour... And I keep asking for "experts" to look at it, even if it means doing it 10 times over the course of three days.

Cuvée de l'Elegance Saint-Peray White Rhone Blend 2018

Nose is lemon, flower. Quite elegant. Not sure I’d guess Northern rhone blind.

Palate is silky. Quite good. Elegant Apricot. Balanced.
