    Justerini & Brooks Tasting note

    Powerful dark and velvety with a sapid finish. Big cassis and bramble flavours laced with spice. One of the most highly-charged, full bodied St Josephs Perret has made. Yes despite the brawn it retains clarity of flavour and an ample curvaceousness. A blend of Syrah vines in the commune of Chavanay in the north part of St Joseph near Condrieu. Made from 100% de-stalked Syrah and aged in 20% new oak barriques usually for 12-14 months

    Complex and spicy, Perret's Chavanay-based 2018 Saint Joseph offers up hints of hickory smoke, cracked pepper and ripe cherries. Medium to full-bodied, it's silky and seductive, finishing with lip-smacking deliciousness. Drink it over the next 5 years.

    Assertively perfumed dark berry, cherry and licorice aromas are sharpened by black pepper and mineral flourishes. Silky, energetic blueberry and bitter cherry flavors turn sweeter in the glass and pick up a smoky flourish on the back half. Firms up steadily with air and finishes spicy and quite long, displaying even tannins and a resonating blackberry quality.
