Pierre Gonon Saint Joseph Rouge 2023

Classic to the core, the 2023 Saint-Joseph used 80% whole clusters during fermentation. Linear and precise, it dazzles with a complex aromatic profile, bundling pencil shaving, crushed violet, red plum and black cherry alongside peppery undertones. Hitting the medium-bodied palate with utter refinement, the 2023 is shaping up to be yet another outstanding Saint-Joseph from the talented Gonon brothers. (Drink between 2028-2038)
92-94 points. Nicholas Greinacher, vinous.
