This syrah really comes together so perfectly. It has a deep rich red color and a concentrated richness of cherries and spice with a pleasing woodiness. It’s lush on the palate, with a splendid balance of rich fruit and soft tannins. Here’s a wine that can be consumed now with rich grilled meats, pasta with meat sauces etc etc. I just enjoyed a glassful, but you ought to age some for a few years
Terres Brulées Cornas is an elegant Syrah with notes of ripe blackcurrant and raspberry fruit, and spicy hints of liquorice and coffee. Very rich with powerful yet balanced tannins and great length.

The style of Piper-Heidsieck's nonvintage Champagne is getting more and more refined. It is drier than in the past while also full of ripe white fruits. There is a tight structure, a hint of toast from bottle age and fresh acidity at the end
