Guillaume Gilles Cornas Syrah 2017

Josh Morgenthau

Blue flower perfume. Anise seed. Dusty minerality, granitic. Delicate tannins within a supremely long, tart, palate of purple raspberries. Elegant and juicy body and finish, with a firm mineral spine. Fantastic. Such elegant wine. Subtle and pretty. Nice perception of sweetness. Will only get better.

This is magnificent. Superb nose. Expansive and refined. Floral, herbal, granite, black fruits. Exuberant spice and man that granite. Elite aromas. Soupy dense fruit. A sense of deepness. So good. This is all Chaillot which really shows. The palate is awesome. Young but so refined and massive granitic tannins and massive fruit soak. Young purpley fruit. This is the Mouton-Rothschild of Cornas. The nose is ridiculous after 10 minutes. So detailed and deep. What a palate. This needs 10 years but is so impressive. After 45 minutes 9.5 to 9.6. Best young Gilles ever.
