Why We're Buying
Cornas Reynard is the Shaq to Cornas Chaillot’s Kobe. The iconic cuvées from Thiérry Allemand have made him a superstar in Northern Rhône, despite no formal winemaking education. Cornas Reynard serves as the unsung hero of the region with critics and investors now giving it the attention it deserves.
Critics Scores
Vinous
Glass-staining ruby. Powerful, deeply perfumed aromas of black and blue fruit liqueur, licorice, smoked meat and olive, along with a sexy floral overtone that gains strength as the wine opens up. Stains the palate with deeply concentrated, spice-laced blackberry, boysenberry, violet pastille and fruitcake flavors, while a smoky mineral flourish adds vibrant lift. Chewy tannins shape an extremely long, mineral-driven finish that shows superb power and insistent florality.
