The 2015 Saint Joseph les Pierres comes from the granite soils of the C?te-Belley lieu-dit (northern part of the appellation) and is still aging in new French oak barrels. It has beautiful concentration and mid-palate depth, as well as lots of mulled blackberry and darker fruits, licorice and hints of chocolate. It has terrific purity of fruit, and its oak component is pushed all the way into the background.
