Jean-Baptiste Souillard Saint-Joseph Janoune 2021
Saint-Joseph Janoune by Jean-Baptiste Souillard is a dry red wine from the Northern RhĂŽne Valley, made exclusively from Syrah. The style shows a precise and elegant profile, with a medium-full body, fine tannins and a clear minerality. Spontaneous fermentation and aging in used oak barrels preserve the character of dark fruit and tension, without excessive woody notes. This Saint-Joseph offers balance and versatility, suitable for the table and for a period of aging in the cellar.
Visually, the wine is an intense ruby red with violet reflections typical of young Syrah. On the nose there are dark fruit aromas such as blackberry and plum, with fine spices, hints of pepper, and a floral touch of violet. In the background, hints of graphite and wet stone emerge, linked to the granitic soil. On the palate it is deep and composed, with pronounced acidity, silky tannins, and a long, mineral finish with spicy returns.
This Saint-Joseph pairs well with grilled red meats, braises and roasts, thanks to its structure and fine tannins. It also stands up well to game, especially with herbs and spices. It matches with aged and hard cheeses, where the savoriness finds balance in the freshness and fruit. Regionally, it is ideal with herb-roasted lamb or beef stew in red wine. Among French dishes, coq au vin makes an apt pairing for intensity and persistence.
