Terres d’Arce Cornas
Rhone valley Terroir and cornas appellation, this Syrah🍇 is produced from vintage 2015. Though, this is one of the smallest appellations in the very famous Rhone Valley, its the most significant place for the Syrah.
👀 Dark and dense red with deep purple rings. Legs are strong and showing boldness. Look-wise, mid-high ABV.
👃🏼 Strong and earthy nose with a clear signs of graphite and flinty soil. The primary aroma is dark fruit plum, ripe blackberry, and far away from the floral aroma. Secondary aroma comes from herbs, spices, and terroir. Black olives, pepper, and stone.
👅 The taste and palate feel are not at all different from look and nose. Full, complex, rich, and grippy. Tannins are tight, the same as olives. Bold and kind of full-bodied. Dry enough to make you feel bitterness and mid acidic. Clear vanilla oaky and spice. Woody and leather sensation with a long finish. This one requires a good decanting and a place in shelf for later consumption.
🍽 Heavy and rich meat like lamb and pork. Don’t try the contrasting pairing if you are new and don’t wanna waste it. Congruent one to enhance the overall experience is what we recommend.
Decanting: 1-2 hours
Temp: 15-17 Degree C.
