Presse / Kritik
Wein Plus: 94 / 100 Punkte
"Tiefer und dichter, vielschichtiger, nussiger, hefiger und tabakiger Duft nach sehr reifen schwarzen Beeren mit Kirscharomen, Wacholder, Pfeffer und mediterranen Kräutern sowie noblen bitterschokoladigen Nuancen. Straffe, tiefe und konzentrierte, sehr geschliffene, reife dunkle Frucht, jugendliches, präsentes, dabei sehr feines, reifes Tannin, Pfeffer, ein wenig Rauch und Speck, angedeutet Wacholder und wieder mediterrane Kräuter, hat bei aller Kraft Frische, Schliff und gewisse Kühle, mineralische Noten im Hintergrund, sehr guter bis langer, straffer, frischer, saftiger und feinwürziger Abgang. Trinkempfehlung: 2025-2035+"
J. Livingstone-Learmonth: 4,5 / 6 Sterne
"Very dark robe; the nose is ripe, well and fully charged, centres on layered black fruits, some hidden depths, mystery, buffed leather, resounding cassis fruit. The palate is inky and thorough, holds concerted black fruits with lasting depth, piled up tannins that are really formidable, ripe and multi-layered. There are cool tones within, so it’s not too sunswept. It persists with some herbal thrust, needs time, waiting for around five-six years. It’s big, assertive St Jo, carries a good country nature over being too polished, its heart beating deeply. From 2025 – a pity to tap into it earlier. 2044-46."

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."
