Goedhuis, November 2021
These Syrah vines grow in the very north of the appellation. The 2020 is a darker-fruited St Joseph with heaps of black cherry, blackberry and plum on the nose and a dash of wild iris, lavender, pepper and liquorice. The tannins are noticeably soft and come on in a gentle wave, which gives this 2020 incredible movement and flow. The beautiful black fruits found on the nose are here on the palate too and matched by some juicy red fruits which linger on the incredibly fresh and delicately saline finish. Excellent value.

Domaine André Perret
André Perret needs little introduction: he is the master of light-footed, complex Viogniers from the granite soils of Condrieu. The appellation is known for its rich, mouth-coating whites best drunk in their youth, although André’s sophisticated, expressive examples also have the potential to age well in bottle too. The 13 hectare domaine includes 5 hectares in Condrieu and 5 hectares in St Joseph, and his close-knit, peppe...Read more

Region
St Joseph
St Joseph is the longest appellation in the Rhone, extending along the western banks of the Rhône river from St. Péray to Condrieu. It produces both red wine from Syrah and white wine from Marsanne and/or Roussanne which tends to be early drinking and can be traditional or modern styled depending on the producer. Created in 1956, St Joseph is a young appellation which has seen extensive expansion of its vineyard area over the last 25 years. As a result, many producers feel that there is great potential in the quality of its terroir which has yet to be discovered. Due to its lesser known status, St Joseph wines often provide excellent value for money.
