Ferraton Père & Fils Cornas Lieu-Dit Les Eygats 2009

Robert Parker: "From one of the top sites in the appellation, the 2009 Cornas Lieu-Dit Les Eygats reveals smoky, fig, blackberry, cassis, floral and crushed rock characteristics. Full-bodied, tightly-knit, powerful and tannic, it is a concentrated, classic Cornas. Forget it for 5-7 years and drink it over the following two decades. If the turn around in quality of the Paul Jaboulet-Aine wines is the biggest good news story of qualitative improvement in the northern Rhone, what Michel Chapoutier has accomplished with Ferraton is a close second. This is definitely a name to be taken seriously, as Chapoutier has expanded the portfolio and continues to upgrade the quality across the board. Ferraton’s 2009s and 2010s are the finest wines made to date. There appears to be three levels of quality now being produced, beginning with the generic bottlings, to the single vineyard (or lieu-dit) offerings, followed by the top of the line, more expensive, limited production efforts called selections parcellaires."
