Tardieu Laurent St Joseph Blanc VV 2022 Rose The wine offers pronounced notes

The wine offers pronounced notes of cherry and wild plum with delicate spice at the back

clamping down hard on the palate and leaving a bitter primary concentration that lingers on and on

I suspect that the dryness will dissipate with a few years of keeping but that is a supposition

the wine is still tight and needs additional time in the bottle to come around but will continue to gain complexity over the next decade

Tardieu Laurent St Joseph Blanc VV 2022 Rose The wine offers pronounced notes94 Points Jeb Dunnuck "A more mineral driven, subtly reductive style, the 2022 Saint Joseph Vieilles Vignes Blanc has gorgeous citrus and fresh quince fruits, sappy flowers, and a terrific sense of minerality in its aromas and flavors. It's medium bodied, focused, has good concentration, and a great finish."
