Lot #491. Eric et Joel Durand Cornas Empreintes 2011

Description: Consists of 12 Bottles, 0.75L
Region: France, Rhône, Cornas.
Score: 92 WA.
"Moving to the 2011s (which is compared to 2000 or 2004 by the Durand brothers), both of which were in bottle at the time of this tasting, the 2011 Cornas Empreintes offers up smoky, earthy notes of truffle, black currants, creme de cassis and damp soil to go with a medium to full-bodied, pure and lively profile on the palate. Gaining in richness and depth in the glass, it’s a beautifully done Cornas to drink . . ." Wine Advocate #210, Dec 2013
Provenance: The Papillon Cellar
Lot Location: Orange County
Estimate: $325
