TASTING NOTES:
Salty plum and fig notes are fleshy and broad, with pleasantly juicy density and a saline mineral foundation. Smoked bacon adds to the sanguine, meaty density. Mesquite smoke and lavender land the finish, where racy acidity powers through. Drink now through 2032.
– Wine Spectator, 93 pts.
Classic granite notes of cassis and darker cherries, graphite, crushed stone, pepper, and violets all emerge from the 2023 Saint Joseph Offerus. Medium-bodied, focused, and beautifully balanced on the palate, with textbook Saint Joseph tannins, nicely integrated acidity, and a crisp, mineral-laced finish, it will evolve nicely over the coming 8-10 years.
