Description

Clape Cornas 2004

Parker 92 points:
There are always two cuvees of Cornas, and like some of the most traditional producers I taste, the wines are often better out of bottle than the barrel and/or foudre samples. That is the case with 2004, where both wines revealed significantly more flavor and intensity than they did last year. The 2004 Cornas, which is essentially a selection of their older vines, has zesty acidity, an opaque purple color, full-bodied power, and wonderful sweet blackberry and cassis fruit intermixed with some smoke, scorched earth, and new saddle leather. It’s a beauty, rich, full, and while accessible, it promises to last for 12-15 years.

JLL**** comments: 2004
Good dark red robe – legs and depth in it. Blackberry fruit that is nicely packed leads the bouquet, with polished leather, and mineral touches in its fresh outlook. The palate creeps along subtly, has a fine grain texture, discreet red fruit with a scent of violet; the violet also comes through on the nose with air. Has a measured spine, tar elements, the length is good. The balance is so good that this can be drunk and enjoyed solo, without food. The nose shows more fat than the palate. 2024-26 Nov 2011 Previously Dec 2006 ***(*) fairly deep robe with some black at its core. Broad, live bouquet, expressive berry aroma, and a little chocolate in there, too. Red fruits lead the palate, while its tannins give it an upright shape. The richness is present, but low-key. Lengthens well, with mint, chocolate at the end. Subtle, like the best 2004s at Cornas. It is a bit restricted on this drinking, and would qualify as a classic lesser vintage from the Clape stable. Certainly capable of getting together and singing a quiet tune. Esp from 2010. 2022-25 Dec 2006, tasted on two occasions the same day. Previously April 2006 *** (casks) open aromas at this stage, delightful berries, expressive red fruits, violets. Solid red fruits on palate, also pepper and sinew, the tannins are smooth until some mineral dryness on the finish. Length good, will come along. I suspect can move to ****. To 2022-25 April 2006
