Presse / Kritik
Wein Plus: Groß ( 96 / 100 Punkte)
"Tiefer, brillant reintöniger, geschliffener Duft nach schwarzen Beeren und Kirschen mit Provencekräuteraromen, Veilchenaromen und Pfeffer. Sehr fest gewirkte, jugendliche, saftige und konzentrierte dunkle Frucht mit straffen, präsenten, reifen Tanninen und animierendem Säurebiss, wieder Provencekräuter und deutlich Pfeffer am Gaumen, dicht, tief und komplex, mineralisch, noch völlig unentwickelt, hat Kraft, aber auch Frische und Eleganz, sehr guter bis langer, ungemein fester Abgang, wieder mit viel dunklem Saft und feiner Würze. Trinkempfehlung: 2024-2040+"

"The 2017 Saint Joseph offers up effusive notes of mint, black olives and black cherries. As usual, the Gonons have managed to combine herbal, savory and fruity elements into a compelling, harmonious whole. The wine is medium to full-bodied and fully ripe, perhaps not quite as lush and fruit-driven as the 2018, but it's still a tremendous success, capped off by gentle tannins and salted licorice on the long finish."

Das Weingut
Zitat J. Livingstone-Learmonth: " An STGT (Soil to Glass Transfer) domaine par excellence, and fantastic value and consistency - these red Saint-Josephs are top notch Syrahs. The Vieilles Vignes red, occasionally produced in small quantities, is exceptional. The Gonon brothers, true countrymen and taught by their father, make delightful, delicious wines of genuine pedigree. There is a sensible transfer of fruit from mature vineyards to the cellar, where methods are calm and watchful. No new oak in sight. The white is a high-class example of Marsanne, laced with a little Roussanne from a top, south-facing vineyard, Les Oliviers. Both red and white can evolve well over 20 years in the good vintages."
