Sort. Uhyre krydret og samtidig blomsteragtig næse, knuste sorte skovbær, jord. Rige, runde tanniner i munden, brombær, morbær, jordagtigt krydderi, mineralsk, salt og samtidig på en eller anden måde fin, syrlig og mineralsk og også ekstraktsød, utrolig vedholdende. Det er svært at tro, at dette vil være en stor finessevin på trods af sin kraft. 100/100

Den velafbalancerede årgang 2020 fremstår i Rhône-området som en vidunderlig harmonisk og saftig succes. Mens det køligere nord begejstrer med storslåede, utroligt dybe Syrah-årgangsvine på niveau med 2015 og 2016, charmerer det tørre syd med fine, frugtige kvaliteter fulde af silkeagtig charme.

Til årsrapporten

Jeb Dunnuck om: Cornas

The 2020 Cornas is even better, ranking with some of the finest Cornas I've ever tasted. Deep purple-hued, with insane aromatics of bloody blue fruits, liquid violets, graphite, pepper, and smoked meats, this beauty hits the palate with full-bodied richness, a deep, multi-dimensional, layered mouthfeel, building yet ultra-fine tannins, and a blockbuster of a finish. It offers pleasure even now but will be best from 2034-2054. It will be interesting to see if this shuts down after a few years (as most top vintages of Clape tend to do), but I wouldn't be surprised to see this evolve along the lines of the 2010, which is absolutely singing today! 99/100

Galloni om: Cornas

Glass-staining ruby. Intensely perfumed dark berry preserve, violet oil, olive, cured meat and woodsmoke scents show fine definition and vibrant spice- and mineral-driven lift. Offers palate-staining, spice-laced blackberry, bitter cherry, fruitcake and violet pastille flavors that deepen and open up steadily through the midpalate, while maintaining energy. The strikingly long, penetrating finish features youthfully chewy tannins, a sweet touch of cola and lingering floral and exotic spice qualities. All whole clusters and no new oak, as usual.

Decanter om: Cornas

A vibrant, focused and intense style of Cornas, a return to a classic style after the richness of 2018 and the power of 2019. Their Renaissance will be made this year, so both wines will need to be bottled before a more precise evaluation of each blend can be made, but the outlook is good. Whole-bunch fermented in unlined concrete tanks, matured in small old foudres. 97/100

Suckling om: Cornas

A fragrant nose of blackberries, dark cherries, wild herbs, baking spices, stones and black pepper. Medium body with fine, firm tannins. It has volume and structure, but remains extremely agile. It has bright acidity and a vibrant peppery character, giving vitality and tension on the palate. Well-rounded and vivid with a succulent and textured, long developing finish. Best after 2026. 97/100
