This estate grows several fruits, grapes amongst them. The wines are full and ripe. This wine has floral and mineral notes on the nose backed by blackberry and unripe plum. The smoke and meaty aromas are characteristic of Syrah. The palate offers more fruit with dark cherry, riper plum, and more berries. A supple ripe texture from moderate tannins leads to a mineral finish.
Etienne Bécheras, St. Joseph (Rhône Valley, France) 2010
