2023 Saint-Joseph Rouge
André Perret
Marie Perret and her father, André, are magicians with the Viognier grape, but the skilled Perret hand is not limited to white wines. They also grow a bit of Syrah on vertiginous granite terraces flanking the Rhône, crafting a red Saint-Joseph that allies brooding dark fruit with a delicate touch. Smoked meat and tapenade soar from the glass, and if that sounds like a good pairing for lamb, it certainly is. I’d go for grilled chops on a nice day and opt for a roast shoulder or leg when it starts getting nippy out. Don’t hold back on the garlic!

This small parcel has a fruit-forward, approachable style, yet with intense spice and licorice in there as well, perhaps from the deep-rooted old Syrah vines.
