Saint-Joseph opens with floral notes and a hint of honey. Aromas of toasted almonds and acacia on the palate make for a warm and subtle wine that retains its balance on the finish. A lovely bottle!

Rated estate (2014 guide) Selected (Please note that this guide is a ranking and, as such, all the estates listed in it, even those without stars, represent, in our opinion, the excellence of French production.)
About the estate:
This fledgling wine merchant was born out of a partnership between the Perrin family (of Château de Beaucastel in Châteauneuf-du-Pape) and Nicolas Jaboulet (former director of the family business Paul Jaboulet et Fils). Two big names from the south and north of the valley, who are releasing a small collection of northern wines. The wines are selected from the barrel before malolactic fermentation at the winegrowers' premises, then matured at Perrin, near Orange. This is followed by blending. The style of the whites is precise, dry and straightforward, of a good intermediate level. To date, we prefer the brightness and density of the reds."
