Score 89/100 · Drink Saturated purple-ruby to the rim. Brooding aromas of blackberry, game, gunflint and smoke. Dense and lush, Stephen Tanzer, Vinous

powerful and fresh. Extremely intensely flavored. Shows a slight green quality and strong acidity, but revealed strong fruit as it opened in the glass. Firmly tannic and very long. This should be long-lived, and may well merit a 90-plus rating with bottle age. Jan 2000, www.vinous.com

About the producer

Thierry Allemand
Thierry Allemand

Allemand’s wines set the benchmark for Cornas: expressive Syrahs crafted with uncompromising traditional methods and released in tiny quantities. From the 1980s, he revived abandoned vineyards on Cornas’s steep granite slopes, building his domaine without inherited land or financial support.
