2024 Saint-Joseph Blanc “Clef de Sol”

Domaine Jolivet
Discount Eligible $52.00
AT CART MAX

I finally got the chance to meet the affable and engaging Bastien Jolivet in person at his domaine just last month, and this blanc was the absolute highlight of the visit, which says a lot given the stunning quality of the entire range. Once an ignored afterthought of the region, Saint-Joseph blanc now rivals the greatest of the local reds (while still trailing far behind in quantity, sadly!). This perfect mix of acidity and unctuous texture gives persistent floral notes with a long almond finish.

Vintage Chart

Trust the great winemakers, trust the great vineyards. Your wine merchant might even be trustworthy. In the long run, that vintage strip may be the least important guide to quality on your bottle of wine.—Kermit Lynch
