Pierre Gonon
Saint-Joseph Syrah
2017 N Rhones are having a moment. My goodness this is wonderful. Olives, blackberry, red berries, so vivid and pure. Gaminess. So deep and pure. Nimble. Long. Granitic. No formal notes.

Jul 24th, 2022Showing pretty well for the early stages of its drinking window after a 2 hour decant. It’s floral, dark fruited and clear Gonon with its black olive tapenade, mineral, and violet inflicted aromas. The palate does show its youth with powdery tannins and compact structure. But I am always a fan of these wines and this will continue to develop nicely.

Oct 21st, 2023Mineral, floral, olive tapinade. Fresh Syrah. Decanted for 3 hrs. Settled into beautiful polished dark fruits with a core of black olive that is delicious. Stems compliment the tannins. Structured. Paired with homemade 🍔 ‘s.
