Guy Farge Saint Joseph Terroir de Granit 2019

Winewherever, Rasmus Christensen

Terroir de Granit 2019 viser sig her fra en robust side, hvor de mørke bær har fået selskab af grovkornede tanniner, grønne urter og en fræk leret granitmineralitet i afslutningen. Ja man får næsten fornemmelsen af, at man smager på granitklipper... Og denne mineralske tone giver en flot og alvorlig mine til vinen. En der vil kunne udvikle sig positivt over rigtig mange år. 1 stk 279,95 – BEDSTE PRIS V/ 6 FL. 179,95

The 2019 Saint Joseph Terroir De Granit comes from vines near St Jean de Muzols and Vion and was 60% destemmed and brought up in a mix of larger barrels and foudres. While it's less expensive than the Passion de Terrasses, I like it slightly more. It's a deep purple/plum-hued red offering notes of ripe black fruits, earth, ground pepper, and smoked meats. Less aromatic, yet rich and layered, with a beautiful sense of minerality, it's incredibly impressive and is going to evolve for 10-15 years.

Crushed stone, black olives and purple raspberries feature in Farge's 2019 Saint Joseph Terroir de Granit. From 60-year-old vines in Saint-Jean de Muzols and Vion, it's medium to full-bodied, concentrated and rich, yet vibrant and balanced, with a long, mouthwatering finish lined with fine-grained tannins. It should improve for a year or two and then drink well for up to a decade, perhaps longer.

Decanter

Very ripe blackberries, this has inky concentration with a good sense of freshness and a graphite edge to the fruit and tannins. Dry, a little pinched for now, but should come together with some time in bottle. Long finish. Very promising, could show even better in bottle. Sixty-year-old vines grown on granite with a large proportion of whole bunch.

James Suckling

A prototypical Saint-Joseph with forthright pepper and smoke character. Plenty of red fruits aromas and a nice balance of medium to full body with warm tannins and a moderately dry, meaty and earthy finish.
