We have excellent pricing today on the best vintage of the Saint Joseph from Domaine Jean-Claude Marsanne ever. 100% Syrah from the northern Rhône, sourced from 8 hectares of steep, terraced vineyards in Mauves and Tournon. Domaine Jean-Claude Marsanne has been family-run for generations, focusing on low-intervention winemaking to express terroir, including hand-harvesting, native yeast fermentation, and aging in neutral oak barrels. It's a fantastic example that shows the typicity of the appellation with dark, concentrated fruits, purple flowers, spice, and classic northern rhone pepper and smoke. This is an outstanding, expressive St. Joseph that checks all the boxes for one of the best buys from the Northern Rhone this vintage!

Vinous (Josh Raynolds) 93 points! "Opaque garnet color. Mineral-accented blackberry, cherry and olive aromas show fine definition and are complemented by floral and exotic spice flourish. Densely packed but lively dark fruit preserve, candied violet, olive and cracked pepper flavors show fine detail and become sweeter on the back half. Finishes with smoky mineral cut, harmonious tannins and strong, floral-dominated persistence."
