St Joseph Rouge Pierre Gonon 2018 is a Syrah red wine from the St Joseph appellation of the northern Rhône Valley. It reflects the granite soils of the region, contributing to its characteristic minerality. The wine displays aromas of blackcurrant, pepper and subtle floral notes, showcasing the variety`s complexity. On the palate, it offers a structured profile with well-integrated tannins and a zesty acidity. With his family’s winemaking roots in the Rhône Valley tracing back to the 1980s, Pierre Gonon adheres to organic practices, allowing the terroir to express itself distinctly. The grapes are sourced from old vines, enhancing the wine’s depth and character.

Vinous
Deep violet. Intensely perfumed, mineral-accented aromas of red and blue fruit preserves, licorice, exotic spices and potpourri, along with an exotic suggestion of incense. Stains the palate with concentrated black raspberry, cassis, bitter cherry and fruitcake flavors that are given spicy lift by a suggestion of white pepper. A violet pastille nuance emerges with aeration and carries through an extremely long, youthfully tannic finish that shows outstanding definition and mineral thrust.Josh Raynolds1st April 2020
