Vivid ruby. Ripe cherry and cassis aromas, along with hints of game and olive paste. Chewy and focused on the palate, offering spicy dark fruit and cured meat flavors and a sweet touch of candied licorice. Finishes with repeating spiciness, building tannins and good length, leaving a bitter chocolate note behind.

The only red from the estate I was able to taste was the 2015 Saint Joseph. This inky-colored barrel sample has Côte Rôtie-like elegance as well as classy notes of raspberries, flowers, graphite and a hint of minerality. Medium-bodied, silky and polished on the palate, it’s impeccably balanced and should keep for a decade.
