Lots of blackberry, cassis, roasted meat and violet aromas on the nose. Medium-bodied with fine, firm tannins. The volume is impressive for the 12.5% alcohol content. Creamy with lots of succulent cherries and bright acidity on the palate. Vibrant finish. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold.

A meaty, sanguine version, with a lot of floral perfume as well. Black cherry and boysenberry flavors merge with notes of iron and well-integrated toasty oak spice. Supple and well-knit, with tangy acidity driving tension and length. Best from 2025 through 2035. 1,200 cases made, 150 cases imported.??–KB??Region: France / Northern Rh?ne / Cornas Select to Add

Dark and alluring yet also pretty, with expressive violet, dried lavender and blackberry paste built atop an underlying freshness. Concentrated on the palate, with balsamic, black pepper and subtle iodine building on the meaty, plump character. A beam of iron and firming tannins dry out the finish, though this is drinking great now. Drink now through 2032. 1,285 cases made, 180 cases imported.??–KB??Region: France / Northern Rh?ne / Cornas Select to Add

The sample I received of the 2020 Cornas les Chailles seemed a bit off, with uncharacteristic notes of dried fruit and chocolate. Funky and earthy, with black olive and prune-like flavors, it's medium to full-bodied and rather broad on the finish. I suspect it will look quite different from bottle next year.

Reveals rich dark cherry and plum fruit with a lightly mulled edge, while anise, tar and black olive accents fill in throughout. Shows a mouthwatering savory edge on the finish. Approachable for the fruit, but a decade in the cellar won't hurt. Best from 2023 through 2032. 1,315 cases made, 150 cases imported.??–JM??Region: France / Northern Rh?ne / Cornas Select to Add
