The Robert Michel Cornas Cuvée des Coteaux 2005 is a study in power and refinement. Dark plum, black olive, and smoked earth intertwine with aged leather and cracked pepper, while firm tannins have softened into a regal frame. Wild at heart yet elegantly composed—bold and timeless. Vintage: 2005 Country: France Region: Northern Rhône Appellation: Cornas Grape: Syrah Drink: Now–2030

Solid Cornas. Meaty and a little gamy. On opening had some anis / licorice which mellowed quickly. Good dark and some red fruits. Smooth and full bodied. Served with duck, sweetbreads, and cod. Great with the offal and fowl.

In a mellow, relaxed stage, with soft tannins, pure black fruit, and some light tertiary wet leaves development, but still with plenty of guts.
