The estate and the wine
The estate and the wine A leading figure in Saint-Joseph, with 2 stars in the RVF Guide, Bernard Gripa's estate is inseparable from the appellation's success, and played a key role in its revival in the 1970s. Today, Fabrice Gripa produces sincere, deep wines of impeccable consistency, whose unique minerality has become their signature.
Wine The 2021 red Saint-Joseph Parady blends fruit and spice aromas in a seductive balsamic and oriental register. The smooth, almost ethereal structure is perfectly balanced and in line with this half-power vintage, which is already very pleasant to drink. A confidential cuvée from very steep granite terraces. Rated 93/100 by Olivier Poussier, Best Sommelier in the World and member of the Ventealapropriete Committee.
Vinification Harvested by hand.
