2018 vintage. Anything produced by Caroline Frey seems to be worth buying these days and this Cornas is no exception. Ripe black fruit, blueberry jam and spices. It maintains acidity in this hot year and is every bit as good as the delicious 2017. Abv. 14,5 %.

2017 vintage. Blackberries and spices. Concentrated black fruit, ripe tannin, powerful and fresh. Serious length. Another winner from Jaboulet. Abv. 13,5% .

As an American Rhone Ranger fan, it is always great to taste the inspirational source. And wow, how nice was this! 100% Syrah from Hermitage. Now making plans for a Rhone Valley trip in 2019!

Cornas is one of my favourite wine but it realky needs to be aged and aired for an hour/two hours to get the best of it.
