(all used barriques ): Bright, youthful purple. Smoky, spice-accented scents of blueberry and dried cherry display a vibrant character and pick up a floral accent with aeration. Juicy black and blue fruit flavors are lifted and sharpened by a zesty mineral nuance and a note of cracked pepper. Closes spicy and tight, with echoing minerality and silky, slow-building tannins.

Score 86/100 · Drink 2014-2017, Jeb Dunnuck, Wine Advocate, Dec 2014

Completely destemmed and aged 14 months in barrel, the 2012 Saint Joseph has an open, evolved and slightly volatile style in its vanilla bean, raspberry and cherry-tart aromas and flavors. Medium-bodied, soft and supple, it will need consuming over the coming couple of years.
