2006 Domaine Philippe & Vincent Jaboulet Cornas

Nicely done! This wine is seriously under-rated IMO.  Lovely bouquet indicates this wine is ready to drink, and the first sip of purple fruit confirms. Extremely tasty fruit with tapenade accents, sweet tannins and nice acidity. The underlying minerally character keeps things food friendly. Plush, but not ponderous. Enough complexity even at this young stage that bodes well for the future.
