Tasting Notes

The Les Royes Rouge is aged 100% in barrels. After 12-14 months in cask, the wine is assembled and aged for 3 additional months before bottling. Profound and complex wine with sweet black cherry-raspberry frui. Notes of minerals and smoke, and ripe tannins that give it remarkable structure.

Other Notes

Among the single-vineyard wines, the steeply terraced St-Joseph Les Royes site is a spectacular “cirque” or steep amphitheater. It is located at the southern limit of the St. Joseph appellation, on the border of Cornas. Exposition is south-east which retains the heat of the day, while completely protecting the vines from northerly winds. The soil is a mixture of clay, granite, and limestone (the latter being the source of the small amount of Les Royes Blanc.) Yields are a miniscule 25 hl/ha.
