Note di degustazione
No whole bunch. Aged for 14 months in oak (15% new). Granite and clay-limestone soil. Black peppercorn, vivid black fruit. Very furry tannic chew. Long aromatic finish that leaves a few floral violet notes. Leather and tar that evokes Nebbiolo in many ways – perhaps a bit of acetic influence too? (RH)

Leading off the three Cornas releases, the 2015 Cornas Les Grands Mûriers is a big, sweetly fruity beauty from multiple lieux-dits. Black cherries, currants, hot pavement, chocolate and roasted meat notions all emerge from this rounded, concentrated, sexy 2015 that has sweet tannin and a big finish. It has plenty of structure, yet it's surprisingly polished and elegant on the palate, and it going to be one of the more accessible wines in the lineup. Still, give it some time. The only downside to these latest releases from Ferraton? They’re made in tiny quantities and there’s just not enough to go around. For readers who don’t know, this estate is managed by Michel Chapoutier, yet they have their own vineyard sources and winemaking team.
Hints of crushed stone, bloody meat and blueberries mark the nose of the 2015 Cornas Les Grands Mûriers. A blend of several parcels, it's full-bodied and ripe, but it has a certain reserve to it and some dusty tannins on the long finish. After a couple of years in the cellar, it should drink well for the next decade and a half.
