Note di degustazione
The violet-scented 2016 Saint Joseph is just flat-out fun to drink. Dominated by bright, fresh cherry fruit, it's medium to full-bodied and silky, punctuated by herb and pepper notes on the nose and finish. Knock it back over the next 4-5 years. Tasted twice, with consistent results.

The 2016 Saint Joseph is beautiful and shows the purity and elegance that’s the hallmark of the vintage. Blackberries, blueberries, peppery herbs, and wet granite-like notes all emerge from this incredibly juicy, racy, vibrant 2016 that has terrific fruit and a great finish. It’s straight up classic all the way and will benefit from 2-3 years of bottle age and shine for a decade.
Bright violet. Smoke- and mineral-accented cherry and dark berry scents are complicated by hints of olive and licorice. Supple and broad on the palate, offering pliant blackberry and bitter cherry flavors that become sweeter and livelier with air. A suave floral pastille note appears on the clinging finish, which shows very good clarity and gentle, even tannins.
