A delicious, poised and well-crafted syrah with dark cherry, dark chocolate and smoke aromas. Medium-bodied with fine tannins. A velvety and pulpy texture, with more chocolate character.

Black cherry yoghurt, sweet fruit on the palate. Full-bodied, well balanced, easy to like and drinkable; the fruit isn't overripe, the tannins have precision. Impressive winemaking.
A juicy, bright and pulpy red with dark cherries, smoke, grilled thyme, grilled meat and plenty of peppercorns. Medium-bodied with fine tannins. Balanced and velvety, with a stream of berries.

An interesting blend of floral, earthy and nutty aromas. Medium-weight, not great concentration, but good clarity of aroma and flavour. Appealing sense of freshness, energy and well-balanced acidity.

A savoury, smoky charcoal nose. Good ripeness of fruit and controlled tannins, and pleasingly low alcohol.

The 2021 Saint Joseph Bois Prieur is solid, with impressive depth and richness. Notes of mulberries, ripe cherries, and hints of blue fruits give way to more peppery herbs and spice.
