Tasting notes
A wine that punches well above its price point is the 2006 St Joseph les Granits Blanc, and Northern Rhône lovers should buy this cuvee in just about every vintage. Offering lots of complexity in its buttered citrus, apple, white truffle, celery and savory aromas and flavors, this beauty is full-bodied, rich and textured on the palate. Like the other whites from this team, it’s drinking perfectly today, yet should keep for at least another decade or more. Having said that, why push a good thing? Drink!

Light gold. Powerful but seductive bouquet offers fresh pear and floral honey notes, with zesty citrus pith and dusty minerals adding energy. Impressively concentrated citrus and orchard fruit flavors possess a nervy quality, finishing with crackling minerality and outstanding length.
