Allemand is an up and coming Cornas superstar and his 1990 is a dazzling example of the appellation. The color of this 1990 is black/purple. The nose offers up splendidly ripe aromas of bacon fat and cassis. In the mouth, this wine is flamboyant and rich, with surprisingly soft tannins for a Cornas, but fabulous concentration and a full-bodied, lush, long finish. It should drink gorgeously for at least 10-15 more years. Very impressive!
