M. Chapoutier Temenos Cornas

TECHNICAL DATA
Alcohol 12.5%

APPEARANCE
Deep black hue flecked with purple.

NOSE
Reductive nose with notes of graphite, black fruit jelly and laurel, complemented by hints of cedar and fig leaves.

PALATE
Broad on entry, then big on the mid-palate with velvety tannins, yet is is ethereal. Shows nice balance between freshness and power with an aromatic range dominated by spices, nice ripe black fruit and sooty notes. Superb concentration in terms of fruit and quite classical Syrah characteristics – albeit in a chary and discreet way.

AGEING
Fermentation in cement tanks.
Aged for 18 months in barrique (20% new).

PAIRING
Perfectly paired with skewers of beefs and vegetables marinated in pesto.

READINESS FOR DRINKING
Drink now, better from 2023 to 2033.
