Saint-Joseph opens with floral notes and a hint of honey. On the palate, it offers aromas of toasted almonds and acacia, resulting in a warm and subtle wine that maintains its balance right through to the finish. A lovely bottle!

About the estate:

 

RVF - The French Wine Review / Guide to the Best Wines of France

RVF - La Revue du Vin de France / Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France

Rated estate (2014 guide) Selected (Please note that this guide is a ranking, and as such, all the estates listed here—even those without a star—represent, in our view, the pinnacle of French winemaking.)

About the estate:

“This fledgling wine merchant was founded through a partnership between the Perrin family (of Château de Beaucastel in Châteauneuf-du-Pape) and Nicolas Jaboulet (former director of the family-owned Paul Jaboulet et Fils). Two heavyweights from the southern and northern parts of the valley, they produce a small collection of wines from the north. The wines are selected from the barrel before malolactic fermentation at the growers’ estates; aging is then completed at Perrin, near Orange. This is followed by blending. The style of the whites is precise, dry, and well-structured, offering a solid mid-range quality. To date, we prefer the vibrancy and depth of the reds.”
