Funky, in a great way, earthy intensity on the finish, really solid example of what Syrah is capable of in the right hands.

Beautiful Cornas. Roast meat, jerky, smoke, deep raspberry, crushed violets, and hints of olive. Pure pleasure.

Nez de pierre chaude et de réglisse un peu façon barolo
Bouche ample mais gardant de la fraîcheur et avec peu d alcool tanins encore un peu agressifs en finale mais l air métamorphose la finale
