  • Hasn't changed since last time three years ago. Great northern rhone with medium body and soft tannins. Nose of a small cornas. Old school 12% alcohol, lovely and easygoing!

  • This is a 2007 (says on the cork). Just great now! 100% typicity, you would place this in northern Rhone in any blind tasting. Grapes come from young vines in Cornas and also outside the commune itself, 100% Syrah. Classic meat, bacon, smoke and dark berries. Lots of tertiary aromas, good sweetness and full bodied. Clape is a great winemaker!

  • (from memory) Medium red, dried raspberries, must, plum and pepper on the nose, palate was salty, austere and off putting with green and earthy flavors mixed with cherry powder and seaweed, finish stings the senses

  • Ruby red, dark, earth on the nose, good dark fruits. A little short aftertaste, but very good value this fine wine. It opend up a little in the glass after 1 hour, more komplex, more soft tannins. I like it.

  • (12.5% vol)
    No formal notes. I realised that for my taste this is a great wine for cooler weather. I actually decided to serve this with the traditional, Danish pork-roast for X-mas dinner (Dec 24). I thought that the prunes on the nose and palate matched the dish very well. Drinking the remnants of the bottle today (had been stored in the fridge), I do think that it has gained even more complexity while still preserving its jovial character. Note--The vintage is note included on the wines sold in Denmark but the wine merchant was able to tell me this information.
