Tasting date: April 2021.
OUR OPINION: Cornas are wines destined to age, this one is no exception to the rule, but it is already very beautiful in its youth, as 2018 is an excellent vintage, which suggests the development of beautiful tertiary aromas over time.
Rich and dense nose that reveals intense aromas of black cherry, roasted coffee beans, blackberry, blueberry and black pepper, with a hint of cinnamon and licorice. On the palate, a beautiful and supple juice with a finely structured frame with well integrated tannins. A silky and elegantly scented Cornas !

OUR OPINION: LE BERCEAU is a cuvée made from the estate's very old vines, which produce a very concentrated wine. This vintage is very successful, charming and generously flavoured, and should be decanted in its youth to round out the tannins.
The juice is clear, of a beautiful orange color. There is a slight reduction present on the nose which disappears after a few minutes of aeration in the glass, to give way to elegant notes of kiwi, mirabelle plum, quetsche and a hint of lily of the valley. On the palate, the juice is supple and delicious with a slightly peaty finish evoking whiskey.
A wine of finesse and delicacy, a nice surprise !
(Tasting date : April 2020)
The juice is salmon-colored, and the nose, intense and totally atypical, evokes the armagnac : there are scents of ripe apricots, rhubarb, raisins, and quince paste. The mouth is supple, invigorating and very pleasantly scented, the tannins are barely noticeable. A beautiful curiosity !
(Tasting date : April 2020)
Powerful nose with a hint of reduction that opens up with aromas of blueberries, coffee, dark chocolate and a hint of black pepper. On the palate, the juice is structured and fruity.
