Paul Jaboulet Aine Cornas Domaine de Saint Pierre 2018
Paul Jaboulet Ainé’s Domaine de Saint Pierre Cornas comes from a plot that is often the last of their vineyards to be harvested and is only released if the vintage is deemed exceptional. The 2018 is a wonderful release that exhibits alluring notes of red and black fruits, wild herbs and crushed stone minerality. It is medium- to full-bodied and flirts with opulence, yet is always reigned in at just the right moment by vibrant acidity and a subtle weave of tannins.
