Thursday, May 24, 2012 - Some Cornas and other Northern Rhones (Fuel, Wilmette IL): nose: rich and interesting nose filled with tones of warm honey, waxy tones, brioche, creams and some liqueur tones. Not what I would expect from a white rhone blend but still very good
taste: full bodied with a very fat feel and low acid. Very rich and complex with tones of creams, warm honey, wax, and a whole lot of brioche
overall: very different from white rhones i've had in the past, but extremely good nonetheless. This was a large wine and could use a few years to really come into balance
