May 14, 2022 - excellent Syrah
savoury, dark fruit, soft vanilla, this needs time to un-ravel
soft mid palate, fine tannic finish with .
agree with 'gradin' very very chewy tannin, in a good way
this coats the mouth and then dry's up with previous mention flavour
but outside the guide, leave till 2025+ -

March 7, 2021 - True to my nature, I couldn't resist trying another (so soon after the last). PnP enjoyed over two nights, each quite different, both fully satisfying if for different reasons. Night one is all about youthful, ripe red fruits, some spice, and to a lesser extent, soil/place notes. Night two is all about floral and mineral complexity, with the fruit remaining more subtly in the background. The abundance of acidity really comes into view on night 2, as does a picture of this wine's future, which is brilliant. It'll be hard to keep your hands off this, be forewarned (read: buy a case, or more). 14,5% abv. highly recommended+

March 1, 2021 - Really good, with solid potential to improve from here. The quality (of this wine) alone brought me back into Cornas (last case purchase, on release, was a 1998 Chave Cornas). It's just $40, to boot, so it's even more of a keeper, not unlike the on-release Chave, actually. Upon reflection, I think I'll grab a few more; will hold remaining bottles for as long as I can, but at this price, working through them will much easier than saving them. recommended+
