Cornas Les Arenes 2016 is born in decomposed, almost sandy granitic soils, and from several different plots.
Its deep and dark color is followed by a classic Cornas scent of black currant, crushed stones, smoked earth and caramelized meats.
Rich, full-bodied, unctuous and yet pure and well-focused, it will need a short holding time to come together.
