2017 Cornas, Domaine du Tunnel (Bottle)

Robert's 2017 Cornas is a medium to full-bodied wine loaded with blackberries, cassis and plums. Despite being ripe and approachable, there's a crispness and firmness to this that's classic Cornas, with crushed stone and seductive hints of licorice on the lingering finish. Tasted twice (once blind), with one bottle seeming plusher and more open than the other but generally consistent in terms of flavor profile.

Vinous

Opaque ruby. Mineral- and spice-accented aromas of dark berries, cracked pepper and licorice, along with a hint of olive and building smokiness. Juicy and broad in the mouth, showing very good depth as well as energy to the bitter cherry, blackberry and floral pastille flavors. Supple tannins build on the finish, which shows smoky mineral cut and strong, spice-driven persistence.
