The estate and the wine |
|
|
Renowned winemaker, at the head of one of the most esteemed estates of the Rhone Valley region, Michel Chapoutier presides over a phenomenal collection of Crus. His talent as a winemaker and his unique knowledge of the vineyard enables him to find the best terroirs for his wines. Of amazing consistency throughout each vintage, his wines are beautiful representations of their appellations: a true winemaking reference! |

A blend of different parcels spread from the north to the south of the appellation, the 2021 Red Saint-Joseph Deschants expresses itself with delight between aromas of black fruit, licorice and spices, in a full and fresh palate, with granitic accents typical of the terroirs of the appellation, and a long finish. We appreciate this velvety and precise style, which is already extremely pleasant and can be aged for another 3 to 5 years. An exemplary Syrah, rated 93/100 by the Committee! |
