Note di degustazione
The 2022 Cornas Chaillot is a brilliant showcase of Franck Balthazar’s capabilities. Revealing a dense, complex bouquet of dark wild berries, mulberries, blueberries, spices and flowers, it's full-bodied, dense and ample, seamless and layered with a racy character, capturing the energetic qualities of this prime hillside terroir to perfection and concluding with a long, saline finish. It's the king of the cellar that will improve with time in the cellar.

Franck Balthazar fans will need to get their hands on the 2022 Cornas Chaillot, a full-bodied, concentrated and taut Syrah with pedigree and class. Vivid violet, ripe black fruit, licorice, cedar and stemmy elements are all pushed forward. Fleshy subtleties add more complexity. Rich, layered and very long, the 2022 Chaillot is a magnificent Cornas that will need at least four more years before it starts to unleash its full potential.
Cask sample. Shows real tension and power on the nose, meaty, and with iron filings and sandalwood spice. The palate is tight with some pepper, fig and rounded, firm tannins – excellent. (AC)
