Alain Graillot, Saint Joseph

From two tiny parcels in St. Joseph, this is a slightly fresher, more early-drinking wine than the remarkable Crozes-Hermitage that constitutes the majority of Alain’s production.

Alain Graillot, Saint Joseph 2021	90 Jeb Dunnuck The 2021 Saint Joseph is classic stuff, offering perfumed, peppery aromatics of black raspberries, bouquet garni, and spring flowers. These carry to the palate, where it’s medium-bodied and has a lively, elegant mouthfeel, a distinct sense of minerality, and a good finish.	Bottle Image Label Image Shelf Talker Tech Sheet
Alain Graillot, Saint Joseph 2022	95 James Suckling A remarkable Crozes-Hermitage with drive, structure and plenty of texture. The nose reveals notes of cassis, dark cherries, currants, violets and warm spices. Medium-bodied with fine tannins. Chalky and focused, with a juicy core of cherries mingling with the violets. Lively and precise with a serious, compact finish at this stage. Try after 2026.	Bottle Image Label Image Shelf Talker Tech Sheet
