Dark ruby/black color. Aromas of black currants, fresh herbs and minerals. Flavors of ripe black berry/currant, dark plums, roasted meat and tobacco. Long earthy and mineral driven finish. Full bodied with high levels of (but well integrated) tannins and acidity. Beautifully concentrated and wonderful mouthfeel. Outstanding!

2 hour slow ox. Nose: Earth, meat and olive tapenade. Palate: Spicy with meaty/gamey qualities, white pepper, soft tannins and a fairly lengthy finish. This was quite good for $33. 92+ points.

Pop and pour, drank half the bottle over 2 hours. This St. Joseph is ready to drink. Slightly polished, but has a meaty component and nice red to black fruit.

Ripe black fruit with savoury notes and good definition. Warm but sufficient grip. Impressive

Complexity. All under control. Sumptuous wine.
