Thierry Allemand
Cornas Reynard (R) Syrah
Cornas, Northern Rhône, Rhône, France
Always some of my absolute favorite wines. 07 Reynard is in the most perfect place, perfumed, layered and searingly intense with dark fruit, campfire smoke, olive tapenade, violets and a liquid rock minerality. The palate is simply seamless and one of the most complete Allemand wines in recent memory, with incredible complexity, definition and a saturating texture. A top notch Reynard that’s just rocking right now.

Oct 2nd, 2023Not the best showing tonight. While my other 07 Reynard experiences have been superb, tonight showed a little too much herbal character for my liking, missing that incredible distinctive violet and deep fruit expression to go along with its liquid rock minerality. They can’t all be winners I suppose!

Never ever disappoints. Refined on both the nose and palate. Everything detailed and nuanced. The fruit, structure and acid all have an opportunity to give a tutorial. Plenty of time left.

Nov 9th, 2022Always and forever one of my absolute favorite wines. 07 Reynard from the master showed just as well as the bottle I had in February. It’s deep, powerful and has a searing intensity. It’s layered with dark fruit, campfire smoke, olive tapenade, violets and a crushed rock minerality. There is superb concentration along with a firm tannic structure that is beginning to soften. It’s exceptionally well balanced and detailed with a palate saturating texture and a harmonious finish that goes on and on. An outstanding Reynard.

Oct 22nd, 2021Allemand nightcap! From the terrific wine list at CUT Vegas. Allemand is truly one of my absolute favorite producers and this 07 Reynard from the master was superb. It’s deep, powerful and has a searing intensity. Ethereal and layered with dark fruit, coal smoke, black olive and violets.
There is superb concentration along with a firm tannic structure that is beginning to soften as it approaches its drinking apogee. It’s exceptionally well balanced with an incredibly long, palate saturating and harmonious finish with vivid energy and an elegant purity. WowWw. ☄️
