The 2018 Saint-Joseph Blanc represents a smart buy in the context of Guigal's lineup. A blend of 95% Marsanne and 5% Roussanne, all drawn from granitic soils at the southern end of the appellation, it's pencilly and restrained on the nose, with notes of pineapple and citrus. Medium to full-bodied on the palate, it's round and fleshy, with a long, silky finish. Sexy stuff.
