Note di degustazione
Fermented with whole clusters, the 2023 Cornas La Geynale is another success at this address. Unfurling from the glass with aromas of violet, dark berries, mulberries, spices and lead pencil mingled with licorice, it’s medium- to full-bodied, dense and generous, built around a fleshy, well-balanced core of fruit framed by velvety tannins and a seamless structure, concluding with a long, mineral finish. Purer and without phenolic elements that obscure its telluric identity, this captures the essence of La Geynale.

The 2023 Cornas La Geynale is clearly a standout. Rocking levels of ripe red, blue, and black fruits, peppery herbs, violet, game, and rare meat-like aromatics all shine here, and it's full-bodied on the palate, with ripe tannins, the classic, wild, sauvage character of the appellation, and a great finish. Fermented with 100% whole clusters and aged in used oak, it's going to need 4-6 years of bottle age, but it's beautiful.
The seductive, intricate perfume of the 2023 Cornas La Geynale suggests that what comes next will be a total delight. Hauntingly floral, the 2023 showcases prominent rose water, violet and orange blossom mixed with raspberry compote, licorice and a touch of graphite. Full-bodied, powerful and deep, the 2023 simply says, "Watch me." I will!
Aged 16 months in casks. Cask sample. Dark and spicy, with a graphite, terroir edge. Round and supple on attack, with that stony terroir note again, the tannins firmly in place behind. Lots of drive and persistence. Could be tighter but the quality of the vineyard and terroir shows. (JL)
