Oh boy 2010 is huge. Definitely built for the long haul but showed wonderfully nonetheless. Northern Rhône King.

So good and deserved more time. Dark red fruit and berry, sour plum, tobacco and pencil shavings. Powerful and delicious.

Tasted blind out of a decanter, this was not budging initially and felt lean, maybe stilted, and angular next to a plush 2015 Voge St. Jo. After an hour or two, the wine started to expand, and impress. Of course, after revealing, we were all present to the majesty of Thierry’s touch. This was not as brooding and dense as I remember it, rather, it felt like the wine was reluctant to strut its stuff until we required it to. Forget about the 2010’s for awhile.

Badass bottle full of elegantly brooding Cornas still deep in a place of youthful backwardness. Decanting for a few hours helps shed the layers of baby fat off this and what a pleasure to drink. Only up from here.

Don't drink this!!! You can open it and bask in its spectacular aromas but the palate needs a few years...but man does it smell amazing!
