Tunnel, Cornas Pur Noir Vintage:2017 The mouth feel is beautifully

The mouth feel is beautifully refined and even silky with the outstanding complexity

Bursting with aromas of mirabelle plum

but neither weighty nor over the top as might be expected for a wine of such extreme richness

The sweet fruit returns on the aftertaste

The 2000 Barolo Bric del Fiasc (magnum) explodes onto the palate with layers of raspberry jam

Tunnel, Cornas Pur Noir Vintage:2017 The mouth feel is beautifullyThere are only about 700 bottles of Robert's 2017 Cornas Pur Noir, so if this is your jam, you better move quickly to secure some. Smoke and vanilla frame huge blackberry and cassis fruit on the nose, while the full bodied palate is velvety while remaining fresh and lively. Yes, this is a tannic wine, but the tannins are fully ripe, and the wine isn't unapproachable, even now. It should drink well for up to 15 years or so.
