Rhône Valley - Cornas, France

 
Appearance: deep black hue flecked with purple.
 
Nose: reductive nose with notes of graphite, black fruit jelly, and laurel, complemented by hints of cedar and fig leaves.
 
Palate: broad on entry, then big on the mid-palate with velvety tannins. Shows a nice balance between freshness and power with an aromatic range dominated by spices, nice ripe black fruit, and sooty notes.
Sommelier's advice: Recommended food pairing: skewers of beef and vegetables marinated in pesto. Serving temperature: 18°C.
