| Description: | 93-95 Jd / 93 Vm / 93 De / 16.5 Jr. Starting with what could be considered the entry level cuvée, the 2020 Cornas Granit 30 comes from further down the slope, from vines closer to the village. That's obviously not a bad thing, since this plump, full-bodied, beautifully textured Cornas has remarkable purity and elegance as well as richness. Blackberries, blueberries, subtle smoke, graphite, and violets all emerge from the glass, and it has a seamless, incredibly elegant texture.-Jeb Dunnuck. Dark violet color. Dark berry preserve, licorice, olive and exotic spice aromas, with a hint of espresso in the background. Sappy and broad on the palate, offering spice-tinged cherry-cola, blueberry and candied violet flavors with a spicy snap of black pepper. The floral note carries through a very long, dark fruitdriven finish, where gently chewy tannins add shape and closing grip. -- Josh Raynolds, Vinous Media. Very herbal, with leafy herbs like tarragon alongside woody herbs such as rosemary. Blueberry and liquorice too. Middleweight style, good concentration of fresh, juicy berry fruit and good persistence. Fresh, intense, gently saline and well-balanced. A good value pick this year. From 10-year-old vines, all destemmed. -Matt Walls, Decanter. Lovely expression of fruit on the nose; vineyard-fresh with a cassis edge. Full and driven on the palate. Lots of energy; freshness as well. Great balance, those polished tannins providing some length.-James Lawther Mw, JancisRobinson. |
