title: Jean-Luc Colombo 2009 La Louvée  (Cornas)
description: A full-bodied, rich wine, with tannins either supremely smoooth or just concealed under masses of plummy fruit. Yet despite the enormous ripeness, it's not lacking nuance, boasting savory notes of espresso and leather. Drinkable now, but should age through 2023, at least.
variety: Syrah
designation: La Louvée
