2020 Cave de Tain Cornas Héritiers Gambert Arènes Sauvages, France, Northern Rhone, Wine Review
This is a Syrah from the northern Rhone Valley in France. Purple in color, ruby at the rim, opaque and bright. The nose is serious with black raspberries, black olives, chocolate and slight violets. Full bodied. Medium tannins. Nicce backbone of acidity. On the palate, boysenberries with some char and black pepper. Good finish. This is nice on its own but better with food. It is drinking well now but will improve. Hold for five years and drink for ten to fifteen after that. It would work well with Roasted Fowl in a mushroom sauce.
