"Just bottled prior to this tasting and brought up in 50% new oak, the 2022 Saint Joseph Lieu-Dit Saint Joseph Blanc has a ripe, medium to full-bodied, concentrated profile that has so much to love. Grilled peach, toasted almonds, and orange marmalade are just some of its nuances, and this beauty has ample mid-palate depth, beautiful balance, and a great finish." 95pts Jeb Dunnuck, jebdunnuck.com
Without a doubt one of the most memorable wines we were shown this year. This fabulous, rich, heady, concentrated Saint Joseph Blanc blew us away when we had Guigal visuit and show us a range of wines, it was over 6 months ago but we can still taste this wine. Powerful and spicy, this is a wine to sip and enjoy over a period of time, letting it develop in the glass. Made from mature vines 95% Marsanne, 5% Roussanne. This will be able to stand up to some pretty rich dishes, goose and turkey would work well !
