Cornas Syrah
Cornas, Northern Rhône, Rhône, France
Love this Burgundian style throwback Cornas. Nose is deep blackberry and cassis with dried herbs and black olive. Huge crushed granite and a deep meatiness. Much to like on this nose. Palate is ripe and rich but elegant, succulent and juicy. Really nimble, fresh and gorgeous sweet fruit and tannins. Wow this is so impressive. Amazing texture and fruit clarity and a deep, mouth coating finish that lasts minutes. Profound showing. Unreal fruit whiplash on the finish makes this so elite. Silky and elegant. Just an amazing wine.
On day 2 this is so silky, sweet and velvety. Seductive.
