Domaine J. Denuziere Saint Joseph Syrah Rhone (2020)
Wine Tasting Notes
Denuzière's 2020 Saint-Joseph is a stony, mineral-driven Syrah with cassis, black cherry and violets layered with cracked pepper. Medium-bodied, it shows soft, silky tannins and the granite freshness typical of the Northern Rhône. Drinking well now, it is excellent with grilled duck, lamb chops or a hearty cassoulet.

Winery/Producer Highlights
J. Denuzière — J. Denuzière is a Northern Rhône producer offering classic appellation wines from the steep, granite hillsides along the Rhône river. Saint-Joseph stretches along the right bank of the Rhône, where terraced slopes of decomposed granite give Syrah its peppery perfume. This bottling is 100% Syrah, made in a pure, fruit-forward style.
