It was a thrill to revisit the 1987 Clape Cornas, which I first tasted here with Auguste and Pierre-Marie Clape soon after it was bottled, in July 1989. Today, it’s a fully mature, complex example of Cornas that shows distinct finesse and potent red fruit flavors complemented by suave floral, exotic spice and mineral flourishes. There’s an almost Pinot Noir-like quality to the wine’s weight and perfume, and the finish is long, seamless and distinctly floral-driven. From a vintage that’s rarely discussed these days, this wine is extremely seductive now. Josh Raynolds1st December 2020
