This wine possesses an opaque blue/purple color along with extraordinary perfume of flowers, blueberries, blackberries, scorched earth, and minerals. The wine offers amazing concentration, massive body, and a huge finish, but no sense of heaviness or heat. Moreover, it tips the scales at 14% alcohol (high for this appellation), and possess unheard of dry extract levels. This amazing Cornas should be somewhat accessible at the relatively young age of 2-4 years and should keep for two decades. Importer: Kermit Lynch Wine Merchant, Berkeley, CA; tel. (510) 524-1524
