Saint Joseph Les Cotes |
Bottled in the spring of 2024 and crafted from 15-year-old vines, the 2022 Saint-Joseph Les Cotes displays a smoky, slightly reduced bouquet featuring dark cherries, violets and dark wild berries. Medium to full-bodied and sweet on entry with a layered, textured palate, it has good depth at the core, a fleshy structure despite a structuring chassis and velvety tannins, concluding with an ethereal, fresh and dark berries-inflected finish. Originating from a parcel in the commune of Mauves, this Cornas is exquisite yet a bit austere; however, additional time in the bottle should help to mellow its edges. |

Saint-Peray Fleur de Crussol |
Derived from vines planted in the lieu-dit La Côte on marl, granite and clay-limestone soils, the 2022 Saint-Péray Fleur de Crussol unfurls from the glass with notes of almonds, white flowers, spring blossoms, spices and honey aromas complemented with a lovely oaky profile. Medium to full-bodied, layered and harmonious, with a cool core of fruit framed by racy acids and beautiful gastronomic bitterness that segue to a racy, long and saline finish. Matured for 18 months, it's crafted from the estate’s oldest vines, which are 80 to 90 years old. |

Cornas Les Chailles |
Ripe red and black fruits, cured meats, leather, pepper, and graphite notes all define the 2022 Cornas Les Chailles, a medium to full-bodied, balanced, serious Cornas that has solid structure, a layered, building mouthfeel, and a great finish. Coming from vines lower on the slopes, it was destemmed and brought up in used barrels. It will benefit from just a few years in the cellar and evolve nicely over the following decade or more. Drink 2027-2037. |

Cotes Du Rhone Les Peyrouses |
There's good tension, balance and freshness to the notes of violet and black plum, powered by tangy acidity. Finely crushed mineral details add texture, while black pepper, baking spices, cast iron and leather bring complexity to the vivid palate. Apple wood and mesquite accents line the vivid finish. Drink now. 2,000 cases made, 500 cases imported. |
