Domaine du Coulet Matthieu Barret Cornas Brise Cailloux 2010

Cornas, France

Dense and brooding with layers of blackberry, smoked meat and crushed violets. The palate shows remarkable elegance for Cornas. Supple tannins frame dark chocolate and mineral-driven fruit. Barret's biodynamic farming creates a refined, almost Burgundian approach to northern Rhône power.

Domaine du Coulet Matthieu Barret

Matthieu Barret's Domaine du Coulet is among the more serious addresses in Cornas, producing site-specific Syrahs from granite-heavy hillside vineyards alongside forays into Côte-Rôtie and Saint-Joseph.
