Leading off the reds, the saturated purple-hued 2018 Cornas Les Vieilles Vignes offers a primordial bouquet of blueberries, liquid violets, ground pepper, and rare steak. Rich, full-bodied, and opulent on the palate, it has remarkable purity of fruit as well as fine tannins. This beautiful Cornas will drink nicely for 15-20 years.

Fraisse expects to bottle the 2018 Cornas Vieilles Vignes in June 2020, after approximately 20 months of élevage. A fifth of the wine was vinified with whole clusters; 15% new oak is being utilized. Painfully young and estery, this is lifted and perfumed—spicy, but loaded with black cherries and plums. Medium to full-bodied, it's silky-ripe and almost lush in texture, yet it has a firm-enough backbone to sustain it through 15 years of longevity.
Drinking Window: 2023 - 2035
