Domaine Clape Cornas 2014

Domaine Clape’s eight hectares of stacked terrace vineyards, scattered across the Rhone Valley, grow on predominantly granitic soils; fruit is used to create Syrah-based wines in a traditional, classic style, full of full-bodied, spicy fruit and powerful structure. The 2014 vintage is plump and powerful, with notes of black currant, licorice, and earth spice. Sweet, well-integrated tannins and energetic acidity; revisit in a few years.
