2015 vintage. Pure granite soil on a south-facing slope. Impressive Saint-Joseph with layered black fruits, pepper and an intense minerality, embedded in a serious ripe tannic structure. Great length too. Abv. 13,5%.

Very well done, but certainly not my preferred style.

Bright magenta color. Bramble berry pie, smoked game, and peppercorn. Suave with a masculine feel. Ample tannin supports blue and black fruits. Super solid.

Needs air and age. Spicy flavor and long finish, but really wound up.

Hard to find 2010 Saint Joseph ( the last bottle in the house) medium body French red Syrah drinks dry in tradition of burgundy and very smooth. Great with Rich dishes or cheese
