The 2014 C?tes du Rh?ne Villages Vinsobres les Cornuds comes from an up and coming appellation that is located in the northern part of the southern Rh?ne. The wines from this region always have a cool climate, almost northern Rh?ne-like character. The 2014 exhibits an inky purple color to go with lots of black pepper, violets, olive, and garrigue aromas and flavors. My note says “it’s a northern Rh?ne Syrah with a kiss of the south.” It will drink nicely for at least 4-5 years.
