The wine is a deep violet colour. Immediately perceptible to the nose is a multitude of aromas from the classical notes of plum, cherry, raspberry and spices to vanillas, hay and liquorice. In the mouth it is full, fragrant and intense. The sugar content is not too high leaving a long finish of berries, chocolate and liquorice. (1 x 75 cl)

Domaine Jean Luc Colombo LES TERRES BRULEES Cornas
Description: This wine is made with a balanced approach which respects the environment, for example, the vines are cultivated manually without the use of insecticides or pesticides. Once in the winery great care is taken and finally the wine is matured for 18 months in one year old barrels. Balance and fullness characterise this deep red, almost inky coloured Shiraz. Aromas of red fruit mixed with those of blackberries, and spices show a hint of tabacco and liquorice. On the palate, the spicy side comes through showing its richness and concentration. Persistent aromas of red fruit and liquorice add an elegance to the structure built upon fine tannins. (12 x 75 cl) Price: £394.93
