Guigal, Saint-Joseph Vignes Hospice

Guigal, Saint-Joseph Vignes HospiceAged for 30 months in new oak barrels. Super luscious fruit with great intensity and depth, and delicious meat and spice characters. Classic Syrah that handles the oak capably and has wonderful nuance and fragrance on the length. Expressive, eloquent, modern and enjoyable. (RH)

from two vineyards with stone terraces at Graham's Quinta dos Malvedos

it should be an enjoyable white Bordeaux to drink over the next 10-12 years

supple and open knit
