Grape variety(ies): Syrah

This is perhaps one of the prettiest "generic" Saint-Josephs of the appellation, vinified by the talented Stéphane Montez: a well opened and delicately peppery nose, evolving on black berries (blackcurrant, blueberry). On the palate, the wine is sapid, with a tannin that evokes the finesse of the granitic sands of the beautiful local terroirs. A real treat.

Technique

Viticulture

In Chavanay, on the northern edge of the appellation, the estate grows its Saint Joseph from vines aged between 4 and 30 years on granite soil.

Oenology

100% de-stemming, cold maceration for 1 week, punching down and pumping over of the juice once a day for 3 to 4 weeks, long, gradual fermentation, low-pressure pneumatic pressing to avoid bursting the pips. Aged for 8 months in French oak barrels and demi-muids.
