The 1987 Cornas les Ruchets is on its downward slope. Notes of roasted meat, peppery spice and espresso are still enjoyable, as is the silky texture, but the wine is dropping fruit and thinning out on the finish. Drink up.

Very firm and tannic, with a modest core of black cherry and spice flavors, but doesn't have as much breadth and richness as you could want. Tasted twice, with consistent notes.??–null??Region: France / Northern Rh?ne / Cornas Select to Add
