Domaine Georges Vernay
Terres d'Encre Saint-Joseph Syrah
Great St. Joseph, but shut down compared to when I tasted in 2018. Needs another 5. Black pepper, blackberry, violets.

Oct 16th, 2023Ruby, aged for 10 months in French oak (1-4 years old), aromas of dark berry fruits and floral notes. On the palate flavors of black cherry and blackberry with licorice and herb notes. Tight tannins, bright acidity, long finish ending with ripe fruit and herb spice character. Nice!

Aug 10th, 2019Purchased from a small wine shop in Kyoto. Popped and poured. Reserved style but very nice fruit and not a heavy hitter which is nice for a change.
