Cornas Vieilles Vignes 2018

"The 2018 Cornas Vieilles Vignes blends fruit from some of the top lieux-dits of the appellation: Combe. Patou. La Côte. Les Mazards and Chaillot. Aged 20 months in approximately 15% new oak. it's a dark. inky-hued wine. but one that retains bright. fresh fruit notes of red raspberries and plums alongside hints of cedar and menthol. It's full-bodied and concentrated on the palate. with a firm. granitic structure and sense of restraint. fine-grained. almost silky tannins and tremendous length."
