2014 Cornas, La Louvée

Vininformation

94 point, Wine Spectator: "Solidly built, with a beautifully ripe core of blueberry, plum and blackberry paste flavors pumping along, inlaid with ample charcoal and bay leaf notes. The long finish is toasted, fleshy and well-integrated. Best from 2018 through 2029."

93 point, Vinous.com: "Youthful purple. A powerful, highly perfumed bouquet evokes dark fruit preserves, olive paste, candied flowers and star anise, backed by a suave vanillin oak nuance. Sweet and expansive on the palate, offering sappy blueberry, cassis and spicecake flavors that are lifted and given a spicy edge by a jolt of cracked pepper. Quite rich for the vintage but lively as well. Finishes very long and smoky, featuring mounting tannins and a lingering floral note."

92 point, RobertParker.com: "Leading off the two single parcel selections, the 2014 Cornas la Louvée (which translates to "The She-Wolf" and comes from 70-year-old vines) is more concentrated and layered than the Terres Brûlées. It offers outstanding notes of cassis, toasted spice, creamy licorice and a hint of violets in its medium to full-bodied, concentrated, elegant and seamless package. It will keep for a decade or more."

Fra en af de få appellationer i verden, som er dedikeret til Syrah, får du her en superb enkeltmarks-Cornas. Vinen er dyb, intens og kompleks med noter af mørke kirsebær, blommer, violer, tobak og krydderier. En sand rigdom og koncentration. Cornas La Louvée er lige så mindeværdig som familien, der fremstiller den.
