A well made wine, balanced and pure, but tastes too young, mostly primary fruit right now with some smoked meat and pepper lying underneath that ripe 2009 frame. I like my Cornas a little more crunchy and funky, though a few more years should multiply the complexity factor here.

Rustic funk, paired with overt ripeness. Spoke the Vintage but want more balance. Interesting...

Phenomenal. A powerful Cornas just hitting its prime. Black, inky fruit, meat and sufficient grip.

Nez de tapenade de fume de pierre chaude ultra délicat
Bouche ample mais avec une super délicatesse
Tres belle equilibre alcool maturité et acidité un tour de force pour 2009
Finale longue sur la pierre chaude
