Varietal: Syrah 100%
Taste Profile: The Cornas 'Chaillot' 2020 entices with an aromatic nose of dark fruits, blackberries, and a hint of black pepper. The palate enjoys a bold and robust attack, as flavors of black cherry, plum, and hints of smoky meat unfold harmoniously. A mid-palate of well-structured tannins and a touch of earthy undertones adds depth to the wine. The finish is long-lasting and elegant, leaving a lasting impression of finesse and complexity. Franck Balthazar's Cornas 'Chaillot' is a captivating expression of the Rhône Valley's terroir, a wine that captures the essence of Syrah in every sip, and a true testament to his artistry in crafting wines that epitomize the power and elegance of the Cornas appellation, one of the gems of Northern Rhône.
