Item # 44507 750 mL

A complex and aromatic Saint-Joseph that exhibits a lovely freshness and fruit-forward nature, while still retaining a restrained structure. Jean Delobre originally sold his fruit, but now farms his fruit trees nestled amongst his vines. Made from his oldest vines, this single parcel Saint-Joseph is aged in neutral oak and then finished in stainless steel. Definitely a wine for the table, and perfect for a variety of lamb dishes, such as Lebanese braised shanks in pomegranate with green olives.

Syrah

We'd like to clear this up once and for all: the Shiraz grape is genetically identical to Syrah. Australian winemakers put "Shiraz" on the map (and, many would argue, vice versa), and the term is now used throughout much of the New World. Let it never be said, however, that Shiraz and Syrah are the same thing: the region in which the grape is grown determines much about the flavor of the wine it will produce. Typically, New World Shiraz yields bigger, fruitier wines than the the peppery Syrahs...
