The opaque purple-colored 2003 Cornas Champelrose possesses enormous concentration and tannin, but it appears to be singing louder than Les Eygats with its broad, expansive bouquet and heady flavors of creme de cassis, blackberry liqueur, plums, acacia flowers, smoke, and toasty new oak. The wine reveals sweet persistence on the palate (nearly a minute) as well as high but silky tannin. This phenomenal Cornas can be consumed in 1-3 years, or cellared for 12-15.
