Paul Jaboulet Aine, Cornas St Pierre Size:6x750ml Les Quartz and the CuveeStill in barrel, the 2023 Cornas Domaine De Saint Pierre has that classic, exotic, floral, orange like character that's common in the vintage as well as a deep purple hue, ample cassis and darker cherry fruits, nicely integrated oak, and textbook Cornas iron, leather, and pepper nuances.
