Le Village Cornas Syrah

Feral smelling but in the reductive way that Syrah can so easily become...if that makes sense. This characteristic softens with air and finds a groove after about 30min. Smells like a deli case with blue and black fruits and purple flowers. On the palate, powerful blue fruits herbs and spices. Big in the structure department too. There’s a whole lot to like here. I would love to revisit this in 10 years.

100% syrah..this is about as merlot-ish as it gets for a rhone as far as being soft.great every day quaffer red..i drank whole bottle without realizing as it just is so smooth which i was not expecting

Sunripe black and red fruit, full bodied with tannins starting to integrate. New oak a bit too prominent for my taste. A lot of time left.

First Glass: spicy nose, soft acidity, not much tannins. Waiting 2 hours to go back for the 2nd glass.

$99Too young, full of tannin very grippy on tongue. Blackberry cherry liquorice
