The 2017 St-Joseph Rouge from Pierre Gonon is a dry red wine made from 100% Syrah, from the St-Joseph appellation in the Northern Rhône Valley. The wine is a classic expression of Gonon`s terroir-driven style, with grapes sourced from the estate`s vines on the region`s distinctive granite soils. A warm and sunny year, 2017 produced a wine with a powerful and concentrated profile of dark fruit, black olive and savoury spice, all supported by a firm tannic structure and a fresh acidity.
