93 JG. ". . . the 2004 les Chaillots is outstanding and quite classic in profile. The superbly complex and beginning to get elegant bouquet offers up scents of dark berries, pepper, black olive, lovely Cornas spice tones and a very fine base of stony soil. On the palate the wine is pure, full-bodied and beautifully balanced, with a fine core, lovey complexity and grip, exceptional transparency and a long, modestly tannic and very complete finish. This is a classic bottle of Allemand Cornas that is just reaching its plateau of maturity, where it will continue to blossom and delight for many decades to come."
