Domaine Vincent Paris Cornas Granit 60 Vieilles Vignes 2010: Robert Parker awarded this 96+ points in 2012, claiming it to be the best wine Paris has ever produced! The color is dark. The nose is fruity, featuring blackcurrant, blackberry, and crowberry, alongside notes of blood, pepper, and dark chocolate. It is complex and appealing. On the palate, it is medium-bodied and fruity, with moderate acidity and slightly rustic—yet well-integrated—tannins. It is finely balanced, with a long, fruity, and complex finish. It is lovely right now and is unlikely to improve further. TW94

Alte Reben La Borne 2012: This comes from a plot towards the top of the Morstein vineyard with more than 60 years old vines. The nose is clean, light, silky and very elegant. The fruit is medium intense with green apples, nectarine, mandarin and banana. It's almost like a banana split with banana, vanilla and honey. There is also grass and minerals like limestones. It is incredibly complex. The palate is airy, but at the same time very intense. It is a beautiful fruit and an intense acidity that balances perfectly. The finish is acidic, complex and very long. This is an absolutely brilliant wine. It does not have completely the same precision as 4 years ago, but it has become even more complex. Dry Riesling does not get much better than this. 97 points.
