"The 1994 Cornas is an outstanding effort, but far more open-knit, opulent, and easier to drink than the 1995 at such a young age. The opaque black/ruby color is accompanied by sweet aromas of truffles, black fruits, smoke, and earth. A voluptuous texture, great fruit, admirable ripeness, and superb purity make for a delicious, full-bodied, concentrated style of Cornas."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
Spans the Syrah-driven northern crus of Cote-Rotie and Hermitage and the Grenache-based blends of the warmer south, led by Chateauneuf-du-Pape. Its wines are known for power, spice and warmth.
Syrah (Shiraz) produces dark, powerful reds with black fruit, pepper and smoked-meat notes. It yields elegant, perfumed wines in the northern Rhone and bold, rich styles in Australia.
