Dark cherry and smoked meat aromas lead to a palate of impressive depth and concentration. Cassis mingles with violet and savory olive tapenade notes. The structure is commanding yet refined, with serious tannins that promise graceful evolution. A Cornas that marries power with remarkable precision.
