Johann Michel Cornas 2015
Red
Cornas, France
7.5
WineSaint
Smoky minerality and exotic spice leap from the glass, backed by dense blackberry and tar. The granite soils of Cornas show their signature intensity here, building layers of dark fruit and cracked pepper. Broad and sappy through the mid-palate, with gripping tannins that demand patience. Drink 2025-2040.
