Northern Rhone Valley, France (Cornas)
100% Syrah
Why is this Cotes du Rhone different than other Cotes du Rhone? A few reasons. It is 100% Syrah and in the Northern Rhone. Super rare. From both inside Cornas and Saint-Peray. Aged between 2-5 years in oak casks. Super bright red fruit with oodles of raspberry coulis and herbs de provence spice all over. Light, fine and powdery in the mouth with soft tannins.

90 Wine Spectator
A racy, vibrant version, with a meaty iodine note infusing a base of raspberry and cassis. Shows nice ripeness for the vintage, with singed incense and baked earth accents. Gains drive from a graphite spine, which also firms up the supple palate. Solid. Drink now. 1,250 cases made, 400 cases imported.
