Bright violet. Smoke-tinged dark berries and cherry on the fragrant nose, along with a hint of cracked pepper. In a fleshy, forward style, showing good depth and energy to the gently sweet cherry and blackberry flavors. Smooth tannins frame the finish, which leaves a hint of spiciness behind.

Strong minerality at first blew off quickly and made for a great wine to pair with bbq pork. Mild acidity and bright cherry flavors.

Pencil shavings, balsamic, better on the palate than on the nose, pretty funky nose. But at 19€ it's pretty good #qpr #saintjoseph #syrah

The nose is all blackberry, pepper and a bit of a mineral thing like gun powder. The palate is delicious. Strong acid drive, nice matter, glorious fruit all along, good grip, lively tannins spicing up things a bit, a very wide and impressive mid palate and a very long peppery, fruity finish with a tiny bit of bitterness, just enough to make it very good. This delivers, time and time again

Nov 10th, 2020Delicious bottle of wine. Wonderful bouquet, fragrant Syrah aromas, tannic and well structured flavors. Great with fatty meats. Easy drinking. Had it at Chapeau with ribeye. Would definitely get again!

Jan 3rd, 2020Blackberry, licorice on the nose. A bit of garrigue and olive too for a classic saint Joseph bouquet. The palate is rather thin and on the length which is unusual for this producer. Usually it has more matter and weight. This one is very long with a good grip, some nice fruit along the acid backbone, and a fruity finish with a bit of a wild, gamey, meaty thing to finish with. Good not great
