St. Joseph, Northern Rhône

François Villard

Poivre et Sol St. Joseph Syrah 2021

Between peppery black fruits and intense mineral notes. Freshness and power. Can age 2 years to develop some aromatic reliefs.

Entre fruits noirs poivrés et notes minérales intenses. Fraîcheur et puissance. Peut vieillir 2 ans pour développer quelques reliefs aromatiques.

I have been digging the Rhone wines I have had recently. Really good now. Has almost an earthy base before some nice ripe berry fruit starts showing. — 5 years ago

Domaine Auguste Clape

St. Péray Blanc Marsanne

Deep, rich and enveloped within a delicate creaminess here is a Northern Rhône white that deserves its praise. The fruit is soft and doesn’t overlay the mineral component. I really like this one. — 8 years ago

Domaine Monier Perréol

Terre Blanche St. Joseph Syrah 2012

Fun wine here! Great value. Rich blackberry meat on the palate and herbs and bologna on the nose. Doesn't sound as good as it is. — 9 years ago

Domaine Romaneaux-Destezet (Hervé Souhaut)

Les Cessieux Saint-Joseph Syrah 2014

Love the acid and style of this wine. Didn't quite stand up against the richer wines in this flight, but again it's is own animal. Lots of carbonic character. Day two it lost that primary effervescence and showed much more weight on the palate. Definitely the outlier in the group. Would like to see this with at least 5 years of age. — 10 years ago
