Marcel Juge
Cornas Syrah
Consumed over several hours and this was all about “a point in time”. The rotation of red and green flavors reminded me of a roulette wheel. Olives and red fruits played a game of hide and seek, occasionally teaming up with tobacco and darker fruits. Intense yet so seductive. Would have liked a longer finish. A wine that I can see being very polarizing due to the assertiveness of its many components..

The nose screams classic Juge Syrah, very savage with all of the campfire! This is not at all shut down, but it will obviously age for a long time.
