"A superb terroir"

“Still in the barrel when I tasted it, the 2020 Saint Joseph Bois Prieur comes from the granite soils of Saint Pierre de Boeuf. It offers lovely herbaceous and smoky notes, baskets of ripe cherries, a full-bodied to medium-bodied palate, and a lingering finish that is both silky and lively. Drink it young, within the next 5 years or so.” (Wine Advocate 2022).

About the wine:

Still in the barrel when I tasted it, the 2020 Saint Joseph Bois Prieur comes from the granite soils of Saint Pierre de Boeuf. It offers lovely herbaceous and smoky notes, baskets of ripe cherries, a full-bodied palate ranging from medium-bodied to full-bodied, and a lingering finish that is both silky and lively. Enjoy it young, within the next 5 years or so.

About the estate:

Tucked away on a small cul-de-sac in the heart of the village of Condrieu, Domaine Niero has just nine hectares of vineyards: four in Condrieu, two in Côte Rôtie, a little over one in Saint-Joseph, and a little less than one in Crozes-Hermitage. There is also about one hectare dedicated to the Collines Rhodaniennes IGP, planted with both Syrah and Viognier. Although the clean, modern approach is undeniable, the wines are full of character and express the distinct terroirs from which they come.

About the estate:

Since 2004, Rémi has been at the helm of this family-owned estate, which boasts a fine array of terroirs in Condrieu, with 4 hectares divided into six parcels. He also produces several Côte-Rôtie cuvées from the Viallière and Bassenon terroirs, as well as a Saint-Joseph cuvée, Bois Prieur, and another in Crozes-Hermitage. The wines are serious and rather classic, though their aging sometimes leaves a slight mark on them during their youth.
