Cornas, Gore

Notes

From a part of the same vineyard used for Billes Noires, Arlettes. 40-year-old vines planted on very poor granite soils, where a very windy micro climate that makes for perennially low yields from tiny berries, are set apart and made separately in only the best vintages. An intense savoury and spice note strikes you immediately, wonderful flavours of rock salt, mineral, white pepper, saddle leather and dried herb mixed with thick satin-textured layers of cherry compote, bramble, raspberry and morello. Frighteningly concentrated and complex.

Notes

Glass-staining purple. Compelling nose shows intense floral, blackberry, cassis and Indian spice qualities, along with a slow-building licorice component. Sappy and deeply concentrated, with intense dark berry flavors and pungent floral character. The floral note builds impressively through the long, spice-dominated finish, which shows outstanding verve and clarity.
