2018 Saint Joseph Rouge “Vieilles Vignes”

Lionel Faury
Discount Eligible $48.00
SOLD OUT

The general rule of thumb is that Côte-Rôtie ranks higher than Saint Joseph in the northern Rhône hierarchy, but Lionel’s Vieilles Vignes throws a wrench into that line of thinking. Made from vines planted between 1937 and 1976, this cuvée showcases impressive depth and soul.

Old cob-webbed wine bottles

Living wines have ups and downs just as people do, periods of glory and dog days, too. If wine did not remind me of real life, I would not care about it so much.
