My first Gonon StJo…unfortunately, I loved it. Wish these were easier to find at good prices!

At 8yrs, this was so perfumed out of the glass. At 90% whole cluster, it shows typical green/stemmy aromatics but it’s not the dominant note, trending toward green peppercorns, violets/potpurri, olive, and black cherries. Mineral notes, pepper, mix of red and black fruits, mocha, and so much verve on the palate, absolutely buzzing both days. This wine is floral and herbal but with so much power and balanced fruit…kind of a wild-ness to it that I loved. What a beautiful expression of Syrah. Killer.

Day two showed the whole cluster aromatics fade a bit, but it also showed the palate bulk up. So good. — 12 hours ago

Medium ruby , quite wide garnet rim . Violets, rose and summer fruits , touch of smoke and earthy notes . On the palate quite structured , with red cherry , blackberry , blackcurrant , quite a mineral , earthy backbone . Nice density , and good fresh acidity , decent saline tinged length , slightly gritty tannin . Really developed well with time in the glass, showing more mineral and structure , great finesse. This is showing quite young still and will likely improve over the next few years and last well another decade. — a month ago

2019 vintage. This estate is on a roll, and this 2019 is absolutely stunning. Deep dark red. Impressive nose with ripe black cherries, blackberries, cassis, flowers, cedar wood, and lead pencil. Very elegant but powerful at the same time, with layers of black fruit, a velvety tannic structure, fresh acidity, and some salinity in the very long finish. Abv. 14%. Excellent. — 4 days ago
