My last bottle. This has finally come as round and showed the aromatic side. No longer funky on the nose. Palate is focused and showed concentration. A great Cornas (declassified)!

Barnyard, peppery nose. Palate is dense, lush and full of blue fruit. A lot of sediments. This is a wine that constantly amazes me as a vdf. Drinks like a solid Saint Joseph, but doesn't have the tannic structure of a Cornas.

Had very good weight and structure for an unclassified wine, but also had that sleek and polished feel that I get from his wines (in a good way). Definitely has the sauvage quality of a Cornas but with plenty of red fruit behind it. Absolutely love this producer.

Quite the rustic wine, as you would expect, this has a Cornas-fell with plenty of iron, black fruit and quite massive tannins. Some did not like this - understandable, it's an aquired taste, really. Has the stuffing for ten more years, easily. #Plesner

Fresh. Light on its feet, with black olive, pepper, and some bacon fat.
