Heiner Lobenberg über:
Cornas 2016

100
/100

Lobenberg: Schwarz. Immens würzige und zugleich blumige Nase, zerdrückte schwarze Waldbeeren, Erde. Sattes rundes Tannin im Mund, Brombeere, Maulbeere, erdige Würze, mineralisch salzig und zugleich auch irgendwie fein, dabei maskulin herb und auch etwas süß, unglaublich nachhaltig. Man mag es kaum glauben, das wird mal trotz seiner Kraft ein großer Finessewein. 100/100

Wine Spectator über: Cornas

-- Wine Spectator: This is brimming with steeped plum, blackberry and cassis notes, inlaid liberally with licorice root, singed juniper, tar and tobacco accents. A lingering echo of smoldering cast iron emerges on the grippy finish, along with a swath of warm humus details, giving this a dense and chewy feel. The core of fruit is massive, but this will require patience. Best from 2022 through 2045. 98/100

Jeb Dunnuck über: Cornas

-- Jeb Dunnuck: The 2016 Cornas is cut from the same cloth yet has slightly more density as well as structure. Crazy notes of incense, beef blood, plums, ground pepper, and blueberries all emerge from this perfumed, massively concentrated Cornas that has building tannins, a tight, chiseled mouthfeel, and a great, great finish. Hide bottles for 5-7 years and it will keep for 2+ decades. 97/100

Galloni über: Cornas

-- Galloni: Tasted as components: #1) La Côte: smoky, spicy and focused on the nose, displaying heady dark fruit preserve, olive and tobacco qualities and a sexy floral overtone. Sweet and energetic on the palate, showing impressively focused blackberry and cherry pie flavors and a touch of cracked pepper. Dusty tannins build slowly on the persistent finish. #2) Sabarotte: lively and sharply focused cherry and dark berry scents, with a sexy floral accent and building minerality. Concentrated but surprisingly lithe, offering powerful cassis and bitter cherry flavors and a hint of exotic spice. Seriously persistent, with solid tannic grip. #3) old vines in Reynard: vibrant black and blue fruit and floral scents, backed by smoky mineral, olive and cola nuances. Palate-staining boysenberry and cherry liqueur flavors show an unlikely delicate touch thanks to a core of zesty acidity. Displays outstanding energy and focus on a strikingly long, mineral-driven finish. 94-96/100

Parker über: Cornas

-- Parker: For the 2016 Cornas, a couple of the foudres I tasted from were truly amazing, like the Sabarotte, which is imbued with the bloody-meaty essence of Cornas, velvety tannins and the Reynards Vieilles Vignes, replanted after phylloxera, which showed incredible perfumes and complexity. 93-97/100
