Robert Michel La Geynale Cornas Syrah 2006
The Robert Michel Cornas La Geynale 2006 is the embodiment of old-school Cornas—powerful, deeply structured, and profoundly expressive. A majestic interplay of dark berries, smoked meat, and black olive unfolds with age, revealing layers of graphite, cracked pepper, and forest floor. The tannins, once formidable, have softened into a regal frame, allowing its sauvage energy to persist with grace. A wine of quiet authority and enduring presence—noble and untamed. Vintage: 2006 Country: France Region: Northern Rhône Appellation: Cornas Grape: Syrah Drink: Now–2030

I love these wines but this just didn't show up to the tasting tonight. Maybe a little off?

young but solid! Decanted but even after two hours was very adolescent. Loved the wine- purity and rusticity combined. Didn't have with quite hearty enough fare, but actually showed beautiful Cru Beaujolais notes so maybe the chicken was perfect at this stage. The Modern
