Cornas Les Ruchets 2010 from Jean-Luc Colombo is a powerful and savoury Syrah sourced from some of the oldest vines in the appellation, grown on decomposed granite soils. The 2010 vintage is a dense and classically proportioned wine. Winemaking focuses on preserving the purity of the fruit while adding a sophisticated smoky complexity through maturation in French oak. It displays a weighty but lively palate, with vibrant acids and dusty tannins that provide a long and mineral-driven finish. This bottling is a benchmark for modern Cornas, balancing its rugged granitic terroir with a polished and expressive elegance that ensures its capacity for long-term cellaring.

Vinous
Inky ruby. Blackberry preserves and cherry-cola on the deeply scented nose and in the mouth. Weighty but lively, showing impressive concentration and a slow-building floral pastille quality. Becomes spicier with air and shows excellent clarity and focus. Dusty tannins give grip to the finish, which strongly echoes the blackberry note.Josh Raynolds1st March 2013
