Maybe a slightly off bottle but not at the level of the 2018. Structurally it lacks tannin and acid. Palate dominated by black tea and violet nots. This just doesn’t have the power you’d expect from Cornas. I have several more bottle so hoping this was a fluke.

Very dark in color. Expressive dark bramble and spiced fruit. Big on opening but with some air this scaled down and became much more nuanced. More detailed than I expected. Tons of pepper and spice. Some olive brine, leather, high acid, good length.
