Note di degustazione
Saturated ruby. Displays an array of black and blue fruit and floral scents that are complemented by suggestions of olive, black pepper and botanical herbs. Plush blueberry and cherry preserve flavors slowly tighten up through the mid-palate while taking on spice and mineral accents. Polished tannins emerge slowly on a very long, smoky finish that strongly repeats the cherry and floral notes.

Aged mainly in barrel, the 2018 Saint-Joseph Francois de Tournon boasts flamboyant aromas of cracked pepper, clove, baking spices and cedar set against a backdrop of black cherries and black olives. Medium to full-bodied, richly textured and long on the finish, it shows the structure of its granite sources—a sense of tannic restraint that suggests ample aging potential, yet doesn't preclude present-day enjoyment.
Bright and expansive on the perfumed nose, displaying vibrant dark berry and floral scents that develop spicy character as the wine opens up. In an energetic, fruit-driven style, offering appealingly sweet black raspberry and cherry flavors and suggestions of licorice and candied flowers. Finishes very long and chewy, with building tannins and repeating spiciness.
