Pierre Gonon Saint Joseph 2017 750ml

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.
