€15. Couldn't wait to open one of these. Opened the bottle 1 hour in advance. Bright ruby colour. Expressive aromas of mainly cassis. On the palate a lot of dark fruit and some herbs. Well-structured tannins. This wine can rest a few more years but don't hesitate to open one now.

$29 retail, after discount. More ripe than the '99, '00 and '01 Clape CdRs were upon release. The '03 has a ton of fruit and comes across almost like a barrel sample. Primary; juicy strawberry / blackberry fruit; promises to improve with a couple years in the cellar... Can't wait to try Clape's '03 Cornas.

Fun, fruit-filled CDR. Still very youthful, it has a simple but protracted palate of dark, sweet ripe fruit. A real charmer.
