The 2010 Cornas Les Murettes is more approachable than most Cornas from this vintage. It possesses a dense ruby/purple color, sweet tannins, and seductive notes of black fruits, blueberries, chocolate and damp earth. Medium to full-bodied with a luscious mouthfeel and a full-bodied finish, it can be enjoyed over the next 10 years.
