"Much more backwards, serious and structured, the 2010 Saint Joseph Les Granits is a longer- term prospect and needs 2-3 additional years in the cellar. Starting out tight and reserved, it slowly offers up notions of creme de cassis, pepper, crushed violets and asphalt that flow nicely to a full-bodied, concentrated and layered Syrah that has gorgeous concentration, racy acidity and a big finish. Showing beautiful, granite-like minerality, as well as fabulous purity of fruit, it will evolve gracefully . . ."

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.
