2022 Johann Michel Cornas

A well-crafted, textural and layered Cornas with aromas of dark berries, currants, wild herbs, earth and baking spices. It’s medium-bodied with finely grained tannins. So much concentration and focus. Poised and well driven, with a bright fruit character toward the flavorful finish. 93 points - James Suckling

Ripe black and blue fruits, violets, sappy herbs, and iron notes all emerge from the 2022 Cornas, a pretty, pure, medium to full-bodied Cornas offering fine, ripe tannins, a balanced, layered mouthfeel, and a great finish. The 2022 was completely destemmed and spent 12 months in oak.

Entirely destemmed and matured in used large barrels, the 2022 Cornas wafts from the glass with aromas of dark wild berries, spices, flowers and carnal/animal-like notes. Medium to full-bodied, enrobing and sweet, it's layered with a fleshy core of fruit, velvety tannins and a long, ethereal and pencil lead-inflected finish. This is a stunning Cornas made from Saveaux, Patou and Les Cotes plots, with 40% of the grapes for this wine coming from the foot of the hill.
