Franck Balthazar Cornas Cuvée Casimir Balthazar 2010

Red
Cornas, France

Inky black fruit and exotic spices build with serious intensity. Dense and powerful, with layers of pepper, cedar and mineral-driven precision that emerge gradually. The tannins are formidable but ripe, demanding patience. Built for the long haul.

Franck Balthazar

Franck Balthazar makes small-production Cornas from old vines on the granite slopes above the village, working with minimal intervention and bottling several distinct cuvées from different parcels and vine ages.
