2021 Cornas, Domaine du Tunnel
Deep purple in colour, with a voluptuous nose of rose petals, violets, cherries, raspberries and black pepper. Medium-bodied, with a lovely concentration of dark fruits and a lick of pepper, this is a generous wine on the lighter side of Cornas.

The 2021 Cornas showed amazingly well, and it brings more ripeness and texture than just about every other Cornas out there. Ripe blackberries, mulberries, spicy herbs, and earth all emerge on the nose, and it’s medium-bodied, with terrific mid-palate depth and ripe tannins. This cuvée comes from a mix of terroirs and will spend 14 months in used barrels.

Vinous
The light- to medium-bodied 2021 Cornas blends fruit from 15 different parcels within the appellation. Displaying shy red fruits with earthy shadings and leafy subtleties, the 2021 is gently supported by low levels of smooth tannins. Fruit-driven and refreshing, it should drink well over the next four years.
