2020 Cornas, Domaine de Saint Pierre, Domaine Paul Jaboulet Aîné, Rhône

Description

Deeply coloured, a blanket of black raspberry petals and violets envelope the nose, amid a richness of chocolate coated blueberries. A velvety textured palate showcases concentrated forest berries at its centre, offset by a graphite acidity. Fabulous structure here which is supremely balanced, the core of the wine is suave and supple, the finish long and fresh, it’s a great success which will warrant a few years in the cellar, recommended to enjoy from 2024 - 2034.

Critics reviews

James Lawther MW 16/20
Less typically Cornas but attractive fruit and freshness. Cherry notes on the nose with a creamy edge and light, fine tannins.Drink 2023 - 2028james_lawther MW, JancisRobinson.com

Situated near the top of the Cornas appellation, the 2020 Cornas Domaine de Saint Pierre features enticing scents of crushed stone and ripe blueberries. Medium to full-bodied, it comes across as richer and more concentrated than Jaboulet's domaine wines from Crozes this year yet still reasonably suave and approachable.Drink 2023 - 2033Joe Czerwinski, Wine Advocate (Jan 2022)

About this wine

Cornas

Cornas

Cornas was established in 1938. Only reds are made, and solely from the Syrah grape; a contributing factor to their style is the granitic soil. The wines are made traditionally and often spend two years in oak. They are also strong and powerful – a cross between Hermitage and Côte-Rôtie – but typically display less finesse. After five to 10 years of ageing the best examples take on a more elegant and complex character.
