Here’s a white St. Joseph that has the minerality we associate with this appellation in excess! Sleek, focused and concentrated with a very stony personality. The fresh and candied citrus aromas are just beginning to open up. Extremely long, filigree finish. Great aging potential. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold.

Varietal Marsanne

Marsanne, a venerable white grape variety originating from the Rhône Valley in France, exudes elegance and complexity in its wines. Revered for its ability to age gracefully, Marsanne thrives in the region's granite and limestone soils, yielding wines of remarkable depth and character. Marsanne wines are renowned for their medium to full body, rich texture, and nuanced flavors of ripe pear, honeydew melon, and nuts, often with hints of floral and herbal notes. With its balanced acidity and subtle minerality, Marsanne offers a sophisticated palate that pairs seamlessly with a variety of dishes, from seafood and poultry to creamy pasta and risotto. As interest in Rhône varietals grows, Marsanne continues to captivate enthusiasts with its timeless allure and undeniable charm, embodying the essence of French winemaking tradition.

Region Rhone Valley

The Rhone Valley of southern France is a particularly fascinating wine region, with a history that stretches back to at least six hundred BCE, when the ancient Greeks first began cultivating vines there. The region itself is split into two distinct sub-regions, with the northern sub-region being famed for its production of exceptional Syrah, Marsanne, Roussane and Viognier wines, packed full of interesting character and expressing the terroir found there. The southern sub-region is home to an enormous variety of grapes, and produces red, white and rosé wines, and some of the world's most famous and adored blended wines. The continental climate of the region is ideal for growing grapes, and the winds which blow from the Central Massif help temper the heat in the vineyards, leading to very ripe fruits holding plenty of flavor.

Decanter

A touch of rubbery reduction on the nose for now. It's full-bodied, fairly concentrated, and generous. There’s wonderful freshness, a particularly strong mineral expression. Finishes on a touch of toasty oak. A great vintage of Les Granits. A very granitic expression from an east-facing plot in lieu-dit St-Joseph, near Mauves.

Wine Advocate

All barrel-fermented Marsanne from Tournon's lieu-dit Saint-Joseph, Chapoutier's 2021 Saint-Joseph Les Granits Blanc is another candidate for the appellation's top white wine. Scents of struck match, melon, peach and lime mark the nose, while the palate is medium to full-bodied, plump and succulent. Is there even a touch of botrytis? Long and gently textured, with a silky finish, it's a beauty to drink over the next several years, perhaps longer.

Wine Spectator

Shows good concentration and depth in a savory, smoky profile. A flinty mineral layer supports modest notes of green pear and melon, all amply flecked with herbs and driven by oyster shell–laced acidity. Glossy in feel, with the subtlest hint of brioche and real substance to the finish. Drink now through 2030. 10 cases imported.

Vinous Media

The complex 2021 Saint-Joseph Blanc Les Granits unfurls with fragrant honeysuckle, lemon flesh and green apple aromatics. Struck match and crushed flowers add more layers. A white wine of freshness and intensity, the medium-bodied 2021 hits the palate with solid flavor concentration. A deliciously sapid finish rounds things up.

Jeb Dunnuck

Saint Joseph wasn't affected by the frost, so the production of the 2021 Saint Joseph Les Granits Blanc is healthy. It's a terrific wine as well and offers a medium gold hue to go with impressive aromatics of honeyed stone, apricot, white flowers, and orange blossom-like nuances. It shows the fresh, classic, focused style of the vintage and is a beautiful Saint Joseph Blanc to enjoy over the coming decade.
