Domaine Barge
Clos De La Ribaudy Saint-Joseph Syrah
St. Joseph, Northern Rhône, Rhône, France
Did I just have this in January? Yup! lol. Anyway nose is young and grapey. Super young. Dark berry and bright red berry fruit. Maybe some pomegranate? Really unique nose. Good syrah sweetness. Palate also young and grapey. But elegant and meaty as all can be. Charcuterie, rich dark berry fruit, super concentrated and just so young but has energy, freshness and acidity. Needs mega air. I’ll be back. Nose becomes more civilized with air and settles into spiced dark berries. Palate is so gamey, so olives and so feral. Really wild St. Jo.

Jun 10th, 2023Terrific nose of smokey florals. Very pungent. Meaty and gamey. Wonderful. Red and blackberry fruits. Palate is super juicy and sleek with terrific, explosive tiny berry black fruit. Resold coats the palate and has extensive length. Young. But what freshness and persistence. Elegant as well. Wonderful.
