Community Tasting Note

Friday, July 24, 2020 - My ex wife used to say about dying in a plane crash, but what a spectacular way to go! I thought about that as I drank this Cornas. Because alas, it’s on its way out. Orange on the rim, burnt caramel on the nose, a touch of alcoholic burn. But what a final act. When I decanted it, I sniffed and got a nose full of grilled meat. An hour later, my glass was filled with asphalt, tar, and mineral aromas, with some lingering BBQ and blueberry crisp, maybe a bit black at the edges. Asian spices, red fruits, and more caramel on the palate. Lively finish. More good news: I have seven bottles left... perhaps others will have held up better. I promise to report.
Day three: olives!
