The 2021 Silice Rouge is a bright, fresh, energetic wine, full of ripe cherries and blackberries with a herbal edge. This invigorating aspect continues on the palate with a wonderful, granitic lift. The wine also has depth and concentration with elegant, tea-leaf tannins and a juicy, refreshing finish.

Alistair Cooper MW 17/20
Tasted blind. Ripe fruits on the nose, blackcurrant, blackberry, gravel, tar and sweet spice. The palate is silky with supple tannins, sweet ripe fruit, grilled meat and good concentration of fruit. Ripe, structured and should age well

Matt Walls 91/100
Neat, well-balanced and fresh, with sappy acidity. It's a relatively light St-Joseph, as is common for the vintage, but they've found a good balance and reflected the vintage as well as it could be. Gently herbal streak and a touch of juniper.

About this wine
Saint-Joseph
St Joseph is the second-largest appellation in the Northern Rhône with 50 growers producing wines from over 600 hectares of vineyards. Established in 1956, over 90 percent of the wine is red – made exclusively from the Syrah grape; the whites are typically a blend of Marsanne and Roussanne. The best St Josephs are still produced in its original heartland, between St Jean-de-Muzols and Mauves.
