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

It is in Chavanay, at the northern limit of the appellation, that the estate cultivates its Saint Joseph from 4 to 30 year old vines on granitic 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 and progressive fermentation, pneumatic pressing at low pressure to avoid bursting the pips. Aged for 8 months in French oak barrels and demi-muids.
