"The 2016 Saint Joseph Le Berceau is tighter and more classically styled, with serious black fruits, crushed rock, granite-influenced minerality, and ground pepper. It's rich, full-bodied, and super concentrated, with a Hermitage-like level of minerality and structure. It's unquestionably one of the wines in the vintage as well as one of the longest-lived."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
Spans the Syrah-driven northern crus of Cote-Rotie and Hermitage and the Grenache-based blends of the warmer south, led by Chateauneuf-du-Pape. Its wines are known for power, spice and warmth.
Syrah (Shiraz) produces dark, powerful reds with black fruit, pepper and smoked-meat notes. It yields elegant, perfumed wines in the northern Rhone and bold, rich styles in Australia.
