Calmel & Joseph - Les Terroirs - Saint-Chinian 2015
17/20
Jancis Robinson
Planted on both clay-limestone and schist soils, the Syrah, Grenache and Cinsault vines produce a more complex wine in 2015 than in the previous vintage. Fruity, gourmet aromas awaken this Saint Chinian, supported by beautiful minerality and well-coated tannins.

The ideal house for those who want to discover good Languedoc wines faithful to their terroir. Jérôme Joseph and Laurent Calmel are wine merchants without a winery.
