2022 Saint-Joseph Rouge “Cuvée 1907”

Domaine Jolivet
Discount Eligible $75.00
AT CART MAX

As with any long relationship, the nearly 120 years that Bastien Jolivet’s small plot of Syrah vines have spent drawing sustenance deep from the granite soils of Saint-Joseph have left a steely stamp on his Cuvée 1907. It’s elegant and profoundly mineral, each sip filled with graphite, cocoa-coated almonds, and inky dark fruit. Open tonight, and its aromas of violets, camphor, and cracked pepper will captivate, but if you choose to wait, its freshness and tannic backbone will ensure a long life in your cellar.

Sampling wine out of the barrel.

When buying red Burgundy, I think we should remember:

1. Big wines do not age better than light wine.
2. A so-called great vintage at the outset does not guarantee a great vintage for the duration.
3. A so-called off vintage at the outset does not mean the wines do not have a brilliant future ahead of them.
4. Red Burgundy should not taste like Guigal Côte-Rôtie, even if most wine writers wish it would.
5. Don’t follow leaders; watch yer parking meters.
