JEAN LUC COLOMBO "TERRE BRULEES" CORNAS 2016

Jean-Luc Colombo 'Terres Brûlées' Cornas 2016 is a bold and expressive Syrah from the northern Rhône Valley. Sourced from the steep, granite-rich slopes of Cornas, this wine showcases intense aromas of raspberry, licorice, and coffee, leading to a palate rich with blackcurrant, dark chocolate, and earthy spice. Aged in oak barrels, it offers a structured profile with firm tannins and a long, spicy finish. Approachable now, it also promises excellent aging potential through 2031.

95 Points – Wine Enthusiast: "A bombshell Syrah... dazzling now for its forward black-fruit tones and fiery spice."

92 Points – Wine Spectator: "Very fresh, with a bright, almost piercing core of kirsch and bitter cherry, laced with chalky minerality, dried savory and light olive notes."
