2021 Cornas, Granit 60, Domaine Vincent Paris, Rhône

Description

The grapes here grow on 30dits Patou, Mazard, and Sauman.  A substantial 30% whole bunch is incorporated. Dark fruit, violet and black pepper aromas greet you, while richer mulberry fruit emerges on the palate. Grippy but gliding tannins are balanced by the wine’s concentration and fresh finish.

Drink 2025 - 2035

Critics reviews

Alistair Cooper MW 16/20

Cask sample. Tasted blind. Primary nose, which is quite subdued. Spiced – clove, pepper – and powdery tannins that dominate the moderate fruit core. A quite light and refreshing style. Time is needed to tame it a little.

The 2021 Cornas Granit 60 is more focused and tight, with both red and blue fruits, notes of iron, ground pepper, and violets, medium body, ripe tannins, and a good finish. There's less baby fat here, so the tannins feel more present, yet it has good concentration, and I suspect it will gain richness over the course of its élevage.

Matt Walls 92/100

Fresh blueberry and blackberry, this has good volume in the mouth; the fruit is ripe, and the tannins are intense and quite strict, a touch on the dry side. Lots to enjoy here, and it should age with interest, though texturally it is a bit rough-and-ready. 70% destemmed, made using natural yeasts, and aged in recent but not new barrels.

Drink 2028 - 2036

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.
