2016 Cornas “Reynard”
Thierry Allemand
Thierry Allemand’s old-vine Reynard bottling is the stuff of legend—a dark, chewy, gamey, leathery, bloody, granitic Syrah masterpiece. Expect it to continue aging gracefully.
**Extremely limited quantities, maximum two bottles per purchase.**

For the wines that I buy I insist that the winemaker leave them whole, intact. I go into the cellars now and select specific barrels or cuvées, and I request that they be bottled without stripping them with filters or other devices. This means that many of our wines will arrive with a smudge of sediment and will throw a more important deposit as time goes by, It also means the wine will taste better.
