Typically one of the better values in the Chapoutier lineup, the 2017 Saint-Joseph Deschants (made mostly from purchased grapes) continues in that mold, offering consumers a spicy, mineral-laced red with immediate appeal, yet it has the ability to improve for several years. Scents of crushed stone and black olives are buffered by some dark cherry notes in this medium-bodied wine that remains true to its mostly granitic roots—firm, reserved and even a bit austere. Aging is in concrete (60%) and old demi-muids (40%).
