Domaine du Tunnel, Stéphane Robert 2016

RRP £38-45

Deeply savoury herbal style. Rounded, freshly fruited style with blackberry, blackcurrant. Saline and bright, with juicy fruit on the finish. This has weight, but well managed tannins and great lift and freshness on the saline, mineral finish. Lift, power, focus – great Cornas style.
