I love when Cornas has a balance of muscle

The harvest is performed manually with sorting work done in the vineyards and again at the cuverie if necessary

It's almost impervious to air and didn't budge an inch over the three days I followed this bottle

Wonderfully fine-grained and sappy

Gadais Pere et Fils, Domaine de la Tourmaline, Muscadet Sevre et Maine, Sur Lie 2007 Cabernet Franc I love when Cornas has92 Points CellarTracker Member Heavier than your average Muscadet on the palate with a lot more taste. I think the its being sur lie has contributed to the roundness quite a bit. I thought it would be flat given the age and type of wine, but it flowed out of the bottle with bright acidity surrounded with sublime light Melon fruit. Quite out standing for the type of wine it is. Stood to moules marinieres we had with it. 12 18 2011
