Marcel Juge, Cornas, 2012
Old-school Cornas from a beloved traditionalist who works tiny quantities in a cellar under his own house. Marcel Juge makes 100% Syrah from steep granite slopes, ferments whole-cluster under a submerged cap, ages in crusty old demi-muids and bottles unfiltered, just as it was done generations ago. The 2012 brought pronounced tannins and good acidity, a structured vintage built to outlive the friendlier 2011. Expect a firmer, more savory Juge that rewards patience or a serious decant. Pour it with something rich.
