Auguste Clape Cornas [Magnum]

Auguste Clape Cornas [Magnum]

Vintage: 2020
Description: "I tasted four different components of the 2020 Cornas from foudre. From 40-year-old vines in La Cte, a medium to full-bodied sample with attractive menthol, red plum and violet notes, ample structure but a bit short (92 - 94). From 50- to 60-year-old vines in La Sabarotte, an earthier, more savory example, with a rich, velvety texture and crisp acids (93 - 95). From 60- to 70-year-old vines in La Cte, a wine that seems to have it all: intense cassis, crushed stone, licorice and black olives, plus amazing richness and length (97 - 99). And finally, from old vines in Reynard, a breathtaking, hauntingly floral rendition marked by purple raspberries and fantastic concentration (98 - 100). The blend should be terrific." - Joe Czerwinski, robertparker.com (Jan 20, 2022)
