2020 Equis Cornas

The Equis Cornas 2020 from Domaine des Lises in Jura, France is a stunning example of a Syrah-based wine. On the nose, it exudes aromas of dark berries, black pepper, and a hint of smoke. The colour is a deep, rich ruby red, hinting at the full-bodied nature of the wine. Upon tasting, the palate is met with intense flavors of blackberry, plum, and savory herbs, followed by a touch of earthiness and a lingering finish of blackcurrant. The tannins are firm yet well-integrated, providing structure and balance to the wine. This vintage of Equis Cornas perfectly showcases the terroir of Jura, with its bold and complex flavors, and will continue to evolve gracefully over the next 5-7 years. It pairs exceptionally well with hearty dishes such as beef stew or roasted lamb. Overall, this wine is a must-try for any Syrah lover.
