What you will taste
Cornas is a small amphitheatre of granite terraces where Syrah has grown for a thousand years, and the wine has never learned to be polite: blackberry and violet over black pepper and smoke, firm tannins, real character. The 2019 vintage gave ripeness to soften the wildness without taming it. For anyone who loves Syrah, this is the source code.
The sommelier’s note
«Decant a full hour and serve at 17 degrees. Give it hearty food: this is a wine that shakes hands firmly.»
