January 8, 2024 - This is my first time tasting Cornas, so I don't have much in the way of benchmarks. This was spicy, raw, meaty. It actually felt like my tongue was tingling with acidity.
Overall this wine was interesting and moderately enjoyable on day 1, but it definitely feels like it needs more time and air to smooth out. What a beast of a wine. -

June 6, 2023 - It's crazy that this is so little known. I always wonder if Northern Rhone micro-cuvées are better or only different. For the first 2-3 hours, this was just different than the 2018 Lemenicier, and then WOW. It's relatively powerful but the extra gear is just sneakier. Clearly you can drink this now, but in 10 years it's going to conquer planets.
