Since everything is relative and I had higher expectations for this wine, I guess it was disappointing. A bit one dimensional, lacking complexity. Dark fruit with an earthy, tobacco-y edge. Smooth soft tannins. Limited vibrancy added to lack of depth. Previous wines from the Cornas regions I remember to have more punch in both tannins and acidity.

Every characteristic you want in NR Syrah is in this bottle. Subtle nose with outstanding BBQ notes on the palette. Soft, delicious. Looking for a local distributor
