2015 Voge Cornas Les Vieilles Fontaines

(aged in barriques and demi-muids, 25 percent of them new, for two years) Saturated ruby. Deep-pitched black and blue fruit scents are complicated by suggestions of potpourri, smoky minerals, incense and cola. Broad, fleshy and concentrated, offering palate-staining but shockingly vivacious cherry, blueberry and floral pastille flavors accented by smoky Indian spices and minerals. Sweet and penetrating on the youthfully tannic finish, which shows superb clarity and dark-fruit-driven persistence.  Vinous Media 95-97
