Super interesting co-fermented blend of 45% Petite Sirah, 45% Roussanne, 6% Grenache and 4% Syrah.

Deep and dark purplish red. Layered nose with tons of dark chocolate floating out of the glass. Layers of dark berries, black pepper, white pepper, purple floral notes, spices and herbs. Got a bit more savory and gamey as it opened up. Moderate tannins (6.6/10) and medium plus body. Kept getting fuller as it breathed. Big and juicy with dark cocoa, tight dark berries, bramble, dark spices, a touch of heat and anise in the finish. Long and lingering finish. Quite heavy and needs some time to fully integrate. Great wine. Drink from 2019 till 2026.

Need to go grab a few more tomorrow! — 8 years ago

1987 Noel verset cornas... What An amazing wine. This wine has soul and it was very special to open and share with friends. Still intact and showing wonderful bricking with fruit that was youthful with green tea notes and figs underpinned with olive tempenade and briary fruit...RIP Noel. — 10 years ago
