VINCENT PARIS, CORNAS, LA GEYNALE 2015 (1.5L)
Description
98 points Jeb Dunnuck
The most traditional in style, with tons of peppery herbs, beef blood, iodine and violet aromas and flavors, as well as awesome amounts of black and blue fruit, the 2015 Cornas La Geynale comes from the oldest vines and steepest parcels of the estate, was not destemmed and spent 15 months in a variety of mostly used barrels and tanks. It's the finest wine made from this up and coming superstar (it surpasses the 2010) and offers a huge, full-bodied profile, thrilling purity of fruit, serious amounts of tannin (they're sweet, but there's lots of them) and a blockbuster finish. Forget bottles for 4-5 years and enjoy over the following two decades or more. (1/2018)

Paris’ 2015 Cornas la Geynale comes from the south-facing parcel of the same name and from 100-year-old vines. It’s hugely concentrated and rich yet firm and austere, showing off its granite pedigree. Licorice, plum and crushed stone notes promise much for the future, but unless you’re a big-time tannin pig this mouth-drying wine demands cellaring. (JC) (12/2017)
95 points Vinous
A potent, highly perfumed bouquet evokes ripe black and blue fruits, cherry liqueur, incense and candied violet, and a smoky mineral nuance builds in the glass. Sweet, seamless and focused on the palate, offering deeply concentrated blueberry, cherry liqueur and floral pastille flavors and a strong suggestion of fruitcake. In a powerful yet almost shockingly graceful style, displaying superb detail and focus on an impressively long, floral- and mineral-dominated finish. (JR) (4/2018)
