Lovely Saint-Joseph showcasing appellation’s quality potential. Deep ruby-purple with vibrant edges. Nose: complex blackberry, blueberry, violet, cracked pepper and subtle granite. Palate: excellent concentration with balanced dark fruits, floral elements and minerals. Medium to full-bodied with refined tannins and bright acidity. Long, harmonious finish with persistent mineral character reflecting granite-based terroir. Impressive ambassador for this overlooked appellation. [Rhone Roots 2025, Lumiere London]
