Riper then expected, delicious and showing a lot character (mostly fruit) in its youthful stage.

Jul 29th, 2014I was expecting a modern style but this was quite balanced. With a solid decant this was drinking very well. Dark fruit, earthy core.

Jun 24th, 2018Our little (actually not that little anymore) wonder 11th birthday. Time for the yearly 2011! This Cornas is still very young and is just entering it’s drinking window according to me. Compared to previous two bottles the harmony is finally getting where it should be. Still quite some acidity but not overwhelming the fruit anymore. Quite complex
