Auguste Clape Cornas 2020
Tasting Note
'Glass-staining ruby. Intensely perfumed dark berry preserve, violet oil, olive, cured meat and
woodsmoke scents show ne denition and vibrant spice- and mineral-driven lift. Oers palatestaining, spice-laced blackberry, bitter cherry, fruitcake and violet pastille avors that deepen
and open up steadily through the midpalate, while maintaining energy. The strikingly long,
penetrating nish features youthfully chewy tannins, a sweet touch of cola and lingering oral
and exotic spice qualities. All whole clusters and no new oak, as usual.'
