The 100% Syrah is hand harvested and sorted, then fermented at high temperatures in stainless steel vats. Aging was for 24 months in second use barrels, all coopered by Guigal at Château d’Ampuis. It is a brilliant expression of the terroir, and wonderfully elegant even in their youth with great intensity and ripe fruit flavors.
"Aromas of sliced plums, sage and bay leaf. Medium-bodied with silky tannins. Juicy and succulent red fruit with lovely freshness and subtle ground spice. Drink now." James Suckling, 91 Points
"Guigal's 2019 Saint-Joseph shows the bottling's characteristic granitic austerity and restraint, allied to notes of crushed stone and cassis. It's medium to full-bodied, smooth and polished, with a silky feel to the finish." The Wine Advocate, 91 Points
