Cotes de Rhone from this Cornas-based producer…dominated by smoke, rocks, ash, tar and earth, dried medicinal herbs, lots of glycerine with only the faintest hint of black and purple fruit peeking out. Typical of the winemaker and the category in general (that is, non-Allemand Cornas) in the sense of being somewhat unapproachable and frankly not that much fun. Gets points for authenticity I guess

Blackberry, also some barnyard funk, licorice, anise, very earthy and mineral, floral, violets, granite, young as fuck. Like all you can say it’s young. But it’s all there. Juicy and deep, but man this is young, deep and ripe, but bordering on overripe.
