Score 87/100 · Drink 2010, Robert Parker, Feb 1999

The dark ruby/purple-colored 1996 Cornas offers up an earthy, iron, and black cherry-scented nose, medium to full body, an animal-like, sauvage character, and notes of tar and pepper. It should drink well for a decade. Importer: Frederick Wildman, New York, NY; tel. (212) 355-0700

Score 86/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous

Good ruby color. Violet and shoe polish on the shy nose. Juicy, vinous and modestly sweet. Could use more flesh and sweetness. Firm, fresh finish.
