Robert Parker

"Of the two Saint-Joseph cuvées, Passion de Terrasses is the smaller production, with just under 6000 bottles produced. It's a fragrant, floral Syrah with good minerality, lots of plum, violet and peppery aromas, with medium-bodied, rich depth on the palate. This is a quality wine, remarkable even, showing more density and fruit than many wines in this vintage." (Wine Advocate 2015 - Robert Parker)

About the domain :
