Les Granilites 2015

Slightly more expensive, the 2015 St Joseph Les Granilites sports a deep ruby color as well as young, unevolved notes of ripe red fruits, spice, crushed flowers and incense. Medium to full-bodied, elegant and finesse driven, with lots of granite character, it should keep nicely through 2025.

The powerhouse 2015 Saint Joseph les Granilites sacrifices none of its intricate crushed stone elements to the warmth of the vintage, it just adds layers of creamy, ripe blackberries over the top. This full-bodied, rich and concentrated wine should provide close to two decades of drinking pleasure.

Next up, the 2015 Saint Joseph Les Granilites comes all from the southern part of the appellation, from parcels around Mauve, Tournon and Saint-Jean-de-Muzols. Aged in equal parts concrete and barrel, it offers clean, classic Syrah notes of black fruits (blackberries, currants) and peppery herbs, medium to full-bodied richness, a silky texture, no hard edges, and a great finish. Drink it through 2027.
