This white Saint-Joseph wine is made from 100% Roussanne, from old vines that hails from the walled 4-hectare 'Clos Forentin' vineyard. Showcases lovely almond and acacia flower scents and wonderfully-textured white stone fruit with a long, elegant finish.
Not yet reviewed; 2021 vintage rated 92 points by Jeb Dunnuck: "Composed of 100% Roussanne, the 2021 Saint Joseph Circa Blanc is terrific. Offering a classic perfume of ripe pears, honeycomb, quince, and sappy flowers, it picks up a beautiful sense of minerality with time in the glass. Medium-bodied, nicely concentrated, rich, and layered, it's one heck of an impressive Northern Rhône white that's going to shine for at least 3-5 years, and I wouldn't be surprised to see it have an interesting evolution over the coming decade. Drink: 2023-2028."
