Saint-Joseph Grisières

The old vine 2014 St Joseph les Grisières release is step up over the classic cuvée, and has additional density and depth in its strawberry and raspberry fruits, spring flower and rose petal-scented bouquet. Tasting like a high class red Burgundy, it's medium-bodied, elegant and seamless, with nicely integrated acidity and a great finish. It should have a decade of longevity. Traditional and entirely manual methods are used to cultivate the vines. No systematic treatment, pesticides are used with moderation and only as and when required. In stainless steel vats between 15 days and 3 weeks with temperature control. 18 months in barrels in an air-conditioned wine storehouse. Temperature and hygrometry control. ABV 13%
