Estimate
...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.
Hints of violets, crushed stone, licorice and cassis all appear on the nose of Paris's entry-level cuvée, providing ample complexity. A strong effort, it's full-bodied, ripe and silky in texture, with a lingering finish.
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.
