Cornas 2013 Les Eygats - Ferraton Pere & Fils
Wine from the Ferraton estate
93/100 Wine Spectator
Cellaring potential: Best from 2017 to 2025.
Tasted Nov. 15, 2015 by James Molesworth: "Energetic, with mouthwatering notes of tapenade, bay leaf and savory fluttering around the plum and black cherry soaked core. It shows a leathery style on the finish, accented by a hint of tobacco leaf. It should evolve nicely in the cellar." JM
