This would appear to have outstanding underlying material but it was quite awkward and frankly difficult to judge and my score mixes a bit of reservation with the benefit of the doubt

This and the Suchots are often Grivot’s best Vosne 1ers and so it is again in 2011

dark pinot fruit and plenty of earth character

This is really quite lovely with a really impressive purity of expression and should age well for years

Tunnel, Cornas Pur Noir other_regions_italy It is situated at 1There are only about 700 bottles of Robert's 2017 Cornas Pur Noir, so if this is your jam, you better move quickly to secure some. Smoke and vanilla frame huge blackberry and cassis fruit on the nose, while the full bodied palate is velvety while remaining fresh and lively. Yes, this is a tannic wine, but the tannins are fully ripe, and the wine isn't unapproachable, even now. It should drink well for up to 15 years or so.
