Note, in 2019 hail cut yields by 40%, Deep Ruby with concentrated aromas of ripe dark fruits and spices. On the palate flavors of black cherry and blackberry with leather, licorice and smoky herb notes. Fine tannins, hints of oak on medium+ finish ending with fruit, herb and earthy mineral tones. Nice! — 3 years ago

Just starting to drink well and should improve and hold steady for the next decade. Is St. Joseph the Gigondas the Northern Rhone? A little under the radar, can deliver tremendous pleasure and value and at the same time, can be frustratingly inconsistent. — 5 years ago

2013 vintage. Primary fruit evident. Some bread notes. Stone fruits. Quite round. Acidity less noticeable. But bitter on finish. Pretty good. — 11 years ago
Pinot Munier as the major grape. Smooth, Julie likes — 10 months ago
Budget friendly Cru Beaujolais (Brouilly). Vivid light ruby color. Intense nose of earth, smoke, purple flowers, wet stones and red berries. Just a touch of Brett. Pallet is full of lush and juicy red and blue fruit. Hint of baking spices. Gentle texture and extremely soft tannins. Bright! — 3 years ago
Well that might the best $24 I spent. Couldn’t pass up a late vintage release. — 4 years ago
HWT - very nice red and enjoyed with a spicy red sauce - but if it’s $105 then 2x as much as I’d pay. — 5 years ago

This is really rich voluptuous stuff. It’s low dosage but it’s not minerals on steroids. There is beautiful pear with light ginger here. Very balanced. Perfect for an appertif but would play well with lots of foods. He’s a terroir guy and it shows. — 8 years ago
Yes way gamay. Bright fruit, pepper, mushroom and did I mention bright fruit. So happy. — 9 years ago
Terra orca is right! The earth is coming at me and I’m seeing red. But not the red of fury, the red of passion, the red of pleasure, and the red of desire. One sip of this and desire for the pleasure of passion from this wine endures. The palate parties with minerals. — 4 years ago
Glad I got a case. Excellent — 7 years ago

Вялый перляж. Цедра лимона и апельсина, персики, садовые яблоки, грильяж, сверхтонкие нюансы дыма и творога. Красивый цельный аромат. Тело средней плотности, вкус стартует с нот взбитого с сахаром желтка, продолжается крепкими цитрусами, свежеиспечённым белым хлебом, маринованным виноградным листом. Бодрая кислотность, чуть оксидировано, глубоко и долго. 18/20
