  • 2001 Stéphane Montez / Domaine de Monteillet St. Joseph Cuvée du Papy

    France, Rhône, Northern Rhône, St. Joseph

    Lovely, discreet nose, dark fruit, touch of spice, floral notes. Medium bodied on the palate, very elegant with cool, dark fruit, touch of black pepper and spice, fine tannins, excellent depth and broadens out nicely on the very good length finish. Excellent, drinking well but absolutely no hurry. ****1/2.

    France, Rhône, Northern Rhône, St. Joseph

    Polished, ripe dark fruit, spice, medium/full, some still quite firm tannin, good length grippy finish. Enjoyable, some potential for improvement with further cellaring *** (1/2)

  • 2007 Pierre Gonon St. Joseph Vieilles Vignes

    France, Rhône, Northern Rhône, St. Joseph

    A touch closed, brooding black fruit, touch of black pepper. Medium/full, rich black fruit, firm tannins, slightly more expressive and peppery than on the nose but in need of more time. Difficult to read at this point. **(**).
