2016 Saint-Joseph “Les Grisières”

André Perret
Discount Eligible $55.00
SOLD OUT

In addition to making benchmark Condrieu, André Perret is also a master of Saint-Joseph, the underestimated appellation of the northern Rhône, and provides Syrahs that showcase the finesse and perfume that Chavanay is known for, along with a power and concentration more reminiscent of the southern stretches of Saint-Joseph near Mauves, or, even closer, the wines of neighboring Côte-Rôtie. André’s “Grisières” bottling could stand in quite handily for that noble appellation. Yearning for northern Rhône magic? Here you go. Pull a cork or more and see what I mean.

Kermit inspecting wine barrels

For the wines that I buy I insist that the winemaker leave them whole, intact. I go into the cellars now and select specific barrels or cuvées, and I request that they be bottled without stripping them with filters or other devices. This means that many of our wines will arrive with a smudge of sediment and will throw a more important deposit as time goes by, It also means the wine will taste better.
