May 8, 2022 - Very well rounded and balanced. Dark fruit, spices, chocolate, medium-full body and mouthfeel, nice long finish. I was doubting if it would be too soon, and who knows maybe it was, but it felt like the right time and it is definitely in a very good drinking state now.

May 2, 2022 - Meals in France; 4/30/2022-5/6/2022 (France): Restaurant BTG. Black fruits throughout with very good balance and slightly sweet fruit, yet absolutely everything harmonious, balanced and present right now.

December 9, 2021 - Medium body, fruity, brooding, herbal tones, a bit rough around the edges.

December 16, 2020 - Gang of 4 in Covid19 times; Cornas vs St. Joseph (@ RW): Concentrated dark and red berries, plums and metal in the bouquet. On the palate a lot of sweetness and also good acidity. Youthful round tannin. Laurel, black olives, herbs and spices and a great length. Still a baby. Try around 2025. 91 - 92+

Sans doute le plus classique de la gamme chez Durand, toujours un peu ferme, moins aromatique que "premices" et moins élégant que "Confidence". Mais ce classicisme lui va bien, il tient remarquablement dans le temps (un 2000 superbe), et correspond parfaitement à ce qu'on attend d'un Cornas: du caractère, de la concentration, du minéral, de la fraicheur et du soleil! 2017 est ainsi parfaitement calibré pour apporter -à terme- son fruité, son poivre, son floral ténébreux, et une structure solide et fraiche qui s'affinera dans le temps (15 ans mini). Très beau domaine (Top Five à Ampuis).
91/92+
