2010 Domaine Johann Michel, Cornas "Cuvée Jana", 6/750ml
Manual
harvest, selection of the grapes from the "Chaillot" parcel,

"The massive, backward 2010 Cornas Cuvee Jana
possesses chewy extract along with lots of black fruit, earth,
truffle and asphalt characteristics, good acidity and
freshness, and a boatload of tannin. It will require a decade
of cellaring and should age for 25+ years."
