Clape's 1992 Cornas is one of the few successful wines of the vintage. It reveals deep color, a licorice, mineral, and cassis-scented nose, medium body, and a touch of overripe blackberries. With its deep, smoky, robust flavors, and moderately long, tannic finish, it will benefit from 1-2 years of cellaring and will keep for 10-12 years.
