"The 2019 Cornas Terre Brûlée showed brilliantly, with an exotic style in its darker fruits as well as notes of camphor, balsam wood, plums, and ground pepper. It has tons of minerality on the palate and is full-bodied, concentrated, and powerful, with enough tannins to warrant a solid 5-7 years of bottle age. It’s a beautiful, classic, impeccably made Cornas that will have two decades of longevity."
Vinous, 95 Points
"Opaque ruby. Black and blue fruits, exotic spices, potpourri and botanical herbs on the deeply perfumed, spice-and-mineral-accented nose. Juicy and deeply concentrated but lively as well, offering palate-staining blueberry, kirsch, fruitcake and salty olive flavors that are sharpened by smoky mineral and cracked pepper notes. Youthfully chewy tannins build steadily on a very long focused finish that echoes the blue fruit, mineral and floral notes."
