"A lovely expression of Syrah"
“The 2023 Saint-Joseph Parady, medium-bodied to full-bodied, is lively and expressive, opening with pronounced aromas of ripe black fruit, cedar, and mint. Built on fine tannins, the concentrated 2023 vintage offers striking density and depth, allowing the palate to relax with notes of graphite in a long finish.” (Vinous 2026)

Wine rated (2024 guide) 94/100
About the wine:
A very aromatic wine, with dominant notes of violet at this stage. Fuller on the palate, rounder and more powerful than this producer’s Saint-Joseph, with a slightly higher alcohol content and a bit less acidity. Surprisingly ripe and generous for a 2023 vintage, with a lovely velvety texture. Sourced from a high-altitude vineyard located in the Le Paradis cru in Mauve, planted in 2001.

Rated estate (2024 guide) Award-winning wines (This producer’s wines regularly receive awards from the guide)
About the estate:
The Gripa family arrived in Saint-Péray in the 17th century and settled in Mauves around 1850. A trusted name in the northern Rhône Valley, renowned for both its Saint-Péray and Saint-Joseph wines (as evidenced by the numerous Favorites in both appellations), the estate has been led since 2001 by Fabrice Gripa, son of Bernard, who now oversees 18 hectares of vineyards.

Rated estate (2024 guide) 2*Stars (These exceptional estates, often blessed with fabulous terroirs, are must-haves that, thanks to the consistency and excellence of their wines, deserve a place in the cellars of discerning wine lovers)
About the estate:
Fabrice Gripa carries on his father’s legacy at the sole Mauves estate, which produces as many white wines as reds. He has a perfect command of his craft, producing a range of cuvées with distinct personalities. The whites stand out in four cuvées: two Saint-Péray and two Saint-Joseph. The reds, meanwhile, are fruit-forward, with a sense of integrity and admirable aging management. A consistent estate producing wines of very high quality.
