(WA 91-94 points) Robert owns four hectares in Cornas, divided into many small parcels along the slope. My projection for his 2017 Cornas is based on tasting a few components from barrel, which expressed varying elements of crushed stone, Christmas spices, violets and cassis. Licorice, normally a sign of super ripe Syrah, is also in evidence. It should turn out to be a medium to full-bodied wine, with a rich, velvety texture and plenty of concentration. - Joe Czerwinski
