Naso di viole ancora sulla moderazione, bocca con tannini presenti dotati di un raro equilibrio e una lunghezza molto bella.
Un'annata classica di Cornas, un vino molto bello da stendere.
Da gustare tra 2 o 3 anni o da conservare per i prossimi 20.
Costata di manzo cotta a legna con patate saltate.
The 2013 Cornas les Ruchets comes all from the Chaillot lieu-dit (I believe Les Ruchets refers to a specific parcel within the vineyard), and was raised in a combination of new and older barrels. Giving up lots of mostly red fruits intermixed with complex notes of peppery herbs, potpourri and spring flowers, it's medium plus-bodied, nicely concentrated and structured on the palate with a tight, slightly backwards feel. It needs to be forgotten for 3-4 years, at which point it should drink nicely for a decade.
