Score 93/100 · Drink 2022-2029, Josh Raynolds, Feb 2017

Bright purple. Heady, smoke- and spice-accented aromas of ripe blueberry, olive paste and potpourri are sharpened by a zesty mineral overtone. Deeply concentrated yet lively on the palate, showing impressive focus and energy to the sweet boysenberry, cassis and floral pastille flavors, which pick up an exotic Indian spice accent as the wine opens up. Smoothly marries power and finesse and finishes extremely long and broad, displaying repeating dark berry character and youthful tannins that build slowly.

The 2014 Cornas La Sabrotte is a classic red that offers tons of raspberries, currants, new saddle leather and peppery herbs in its medium-bodied, elegant, beautifully concentrated style. It shows the vintage nicely and while it's already drinking well, I suspect it will evolve well on its balance.
