The 2000s reveal more concentration than many of their peers. The 2000 Cornas Les Terres Brulees exhibits an abundance of toasty oak in its vanilla, chocolatey, espresso, cherry, and black currant-scented bouquet. It tastes like a Napa Valley Caymus-made Cornas. This supple-styled effort will have broad appeal over the next 4-5 years.
The irrefutable modernist of the Rhone Valley, the well-known oenologist Jean-Luc Colombo continues to fine tune his winemaking. His barrel-aged Cornas cuvees are among the most progressively made offerings of the appellation, revealing no rusticity and supple tannin. Colombo practices cold soaks as well as other cutting edge techniques (i.e., micro-oxygenation) in order to subdue the substantial tannins of Cornas.
