Robert Parker (95)

A blockbuster, and potentially the finest wine produced at this estate in four or five years, the inky-colored 2001 Cornas exhibits aromas of white flowers, melted licorice, sweet creme de cassis, blackberries, and blueberries. Profoundly concentrated and full-bodied, this jammy, thick Cornas possesses copious tannin, but it is largely obscured by the wealth of fruit and glycerin. It should turn out to be one of Clape’s greatest efforts. Anticipated maturity: 2006-2022. A brilliant Cornas!

This is really starting to develop nicely, with a racy, iron- and chalk-loaded spine that drives the mouthwatering red currant, damson plum and cherry pit notes. The long, driven finish lets the iron note take a lengthy encore. After two hours, this was continuing to open up while showing more polish around the edges.--Non-blind Clape Cornas vertical (2010).
