  • Monthly Tasting Group HWS; Cornas (By JdB): Beautiful bouquet with red and dark berries and mineral impressions. Same on the palate, firm and juicy acidity, slightly sticky tannin and some bitterness in the finish. Elegant, but one of the least impressive wines of this evening.

  • Very primary, though remarkably with silky smooth tannins. It has a nose of raspberries and a slight hint of the lactic notes that I often find in young Syrah. This is not your father's Cornas: the wine is light- to medium-bodied, is fruit-forward and has none of the scratchy tannins that I associate with the appellation.

  • Retailer tasting; Rhône: Beautiful and complex bouquet with iron and minerals. On the palate a full bodied wine with still youthful and sticky tannin. Juicy fruits, pleasant acidity and a good length. Will probably improve with another 3+ years of ageing.

  • Way too young. Mega tight and doesn’t give anything away. But there is plenty of classic cornas material behind the wall. Will undoubtedly be a very good wine in 5 years time.
    Day 2: left in open bottle over the night. This evening much more “gentle”. Not the tannic wall of yesterday but still nowhere near the smoothness and complexity of the 2009 Granit 30 I drank a few weeks ago. Don’t go near these wines before at least 8-10 years!

  • Still young and quite acidic. I should have read my previous tasting note from almost exactly one year ago before popping this bottle. Not much has happened in a year but I still think there is potential for significant improvement. Nevertheless a great nose with blackberries and some spices. Lots of dark fruit on the palate, but the acidity dominates. Quite tannic.
