Clearly a better vintage, the 2006s are more complete wines with riper fruit, and more density as well as length. Huge flowery, peppery, spicy, meaty aromas jump from the glass of the dark ruby/purple-tinged 2006 St.-Joseph Les Royes. A nice texture, medium body, and fine concentration as well as length suggest this cuvee should drink nicely for 7-8 years. Domaine Courbis appears to have an enlightened winemaking style, using some small oak casks and picking ripe fruit, but never losing the typicity one expects of these wines. Brothers Laurent and Dominique Courbis are avid believers in terroir, and the top cuvees are named after their respective vineyards. There are three vineyard designated wines from Cornas, all from well-known lieux-dits, that are more similar than dissimilar. The 2007s are lighter than the richer 2006s. 2006 is a strong vintage in Cornas, and Domaine Courbis has produced three excellent wines. Importer: Russell Herman, Berkeley Heights, NJ; tel.
