  June 16, 2018 - Found this in a Paris store that had forgotten about it in the cellar. The wine has peppery dark berry fruit with a stony texture and finesse for Saint-Joseph. A textbook example of the southern part of the appellation, but it's now time to begin drinking remaining bottles up.

  August 24, 2013 - A delicious splash of pepper on the nose, with cool red and black fruits. The beautiful primary aromas of classic cool-climate Syrah always make me smile. Tasty on the palate too, fruit, textures and acidity all in a nice balance. Compared to Graillot's excellent Crozes, this is maybe not quite as serious and ageable, but just so enjoyable right now. Too bad Graillot only has 1ha for this bottling. Yes, a completely joyous wine!

  August 29, 2012 - Nez sur les fruits noirs, cassis et quelque note boisé. Une bouche en finesse avec une acidité balancée toujours sur les fruits noirs est boisée avec des tannins encore bien présent. Final d'une longueur respectable. Bref un Graillot avec un bon rendement pour le prix et encore bien jeune.
