Stephen Brook

Tasting: Saint Joseph 2010

Slightly dank and cardboardy nose. Rich, full-bodied, and textured, with good concentration and more freshness than the nose. Tangy and spicy, with some red fruits driving the palate. Quite stylish and has moderate length.

Simon Field MW

Tasting: Saint Joseph 2010

Graphite, woodsmoke and cerise are all evidenced here with a touch of peat and forest floor for good measure. The palate has quite firm tannins, firm but not over-whelming, and a concentrated stone-fruit profile, which will soften over time and open out in harmony with the lively acidity. Nice shape and impressive length.

John Livingstone-Learmonth

Tasting: Saint Joseph 2010

Pine, vanilla, oily black fruit airs, some green stems, the nose is open, not sure how much progress it can make. The palate edges forward, lacks a true centre of fruit, with an acidity that is lining it over its fruit. Limited horizon wine.
