“The Saint Joseph Passion de Terrasses is a beautiful Syrah that offers aromas typical of the Northern Rhône—violets, bay leaves, black raspberries, and a distinct note of peach pit that likely comes from co-fermented Viognier rather than pure Syrah. Made from century-old vines planted on granite soils and aged for 12 months, with 20% in new barrels, this medium-bodied, supple, and beautifully textured Saint Joseph can be enjoyed both now and in 7–8 years.” (Wine Advocate 2015 – Robert Parker)

About the estate:
We often prefer reds to whites, which are often heavy and lack freshness.
