2019 Lionel Faury St-Joseph Rouge Gloriette

Vieilles Vignes, Vegan
Red fruit, with a touch of wood-spice (12 months, 10% new), lovely and fresh. The palate is a touch more savoury, cranberry and cherry rather than strawberry, with soft tannin and a rounded, elegant finish. Suprisingly approachable despite its youth, very enjoyable indeed. (JH29/09/22)

Tasted blind. Plummy and quite shy nose. Good oak integration adding some cedary sweetness, which is supported by good acidity and ripe sweet black fruit. A dense powerful wine but has a lovely minerality beneath, which is beginning to show through. 17+ points
