Saint-Joseph Rouge Le Blanchard

From a site down the road in Chavanay just south of Condrieu, a mere 2,000 bottles of this wine are produced annually, of which we will receive a small allotment of a few hundred bottles per year. A less feral-style red than the typical Saint-Joseph, this wine shows fine minerality and a refreshing fragrance, both floral and berry-like, with a compelling finesse.
