A beautiful Rhone red from Cornas - recently featured on cover of Wine Spectator.95 Points Wine Spectator: "This really stands apart from the crowd, with searingly intense minerality cutting through a massive core of pastis, plum sauce and fig paste. Gorgeous violet and spice notes fill in the background, while charcoal and tar thunder through the finish. Broad in scope, but still has perfect focus. Best from 2013 through 2023. 100 cases imported."

Very big and interesting on the nose, sometimes fruity, sometimes bloody and meaty. Elegant in the mouth with some initial dark fruit until the savoury elements take over for a long finish.

Lots of great stuff going on with this one. Black fruit, purple flowers, white and black pepper, saddle leather, blueberry pancake syrup, and mushrooms. Great mineralogy throughout. 60 second finish. Excellent.
