"Bright purple. Vibrant smoke- and mineral-accented aromas of black and blue fruits, candied flowers and dark chocolate, with a hint of olive in the background. Shows very good clarity and lift to its juicy blueberry and bitter cherry flavors, which stretch out with air. This rich yet lively Cornas finishes with excellent cut, easy tannins and noteworthy persistence."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
Spans the Syrah-driven northern crus of Cote-Rotie and Hermitage and the Grenache-based blends of the warmer south, led by Chateauneuf-du-Pape. Its wines are known for power, spice and warmth.
Syrah (Shiraz) produces dark, powerful reds with black fruit, pepper and smoked-meat notes. It yields elegant, perfumed wines in the northern Rhone and bold, rich styles in Australia.
