Made from low yielding, old vines with no new oak in the aging process, the Cornus Hautes Cotes de Nuits is a joy to drink—a bowl full of berries on the nose, high-toned, racy fruit that has been mineral-laced in the mid palate with the structure and length that has become the hallmark of Cornu-Camus wines. It’s delicious now and will be delicious in a decade. Vine
