Nose: some funk. Blows off. White flowers.

Palate: sweet fruit. Mineral. Good. Well made. Not too wooly.

Sorry. Just noticed the top line on the label. Chapoutier has been doing other joint ventures with Australian winemakers.

@Bob McDonald, I don’t know if they’re still doing this wine, but I believe Terlato is the name of an importer (?), maybe of Chapoutier wines, in Chicago (IL)??

Lieu-Dit Saint-Joseph Syrah 2020

Wow hello! Crushed stones, campfire and small red berries all mixed with spicy goodness. Grippy tannins and lively acidity round this off. Rip roaring, full blooded Syrah...love it!!!
