Pierre Gonon, Saint-Joseph, Oliviers Blanc 2019

Pierre Gonon

Case Format: 6x75cl

The Pierre Gonon estate, located in Mauves in Ardèche, is a family farm of 10 hectares in AOC Saint-Joseph. The Gonon brothers represent the 4th generation and have become an essential reference in Saint-Joseph. On these difficult soils, they apply themselves to an uncompromising management of the vine: plowing with a winch, work by hand, compost, abandonment of pesticides and insecticides. The estate prefers freshness to overripe grapes, and there is very little wine available at the property… so dazzling is the aura of the Gonon estate. Organic certification was obtained in 2011.

Mineral and attractive nose, cereal-husk and honeyed notes. Rounded texture, roasted almond with a salty note and a clean and creamy mouthfeel and an anise note on the finish – very good! (AC)

Produced using the domaines usual blend of 80% Marsanne and 20% Roussanne, the 2019 Saint Joseph les Oliviers Blanc is a bit richer and more honeyed than typical, marked by broad ripe flavors of pear, melon and pineapple. Medium to full-bodied and silky textured on the palate, its balanced by a zesty, briny finish that provides delineation and lift to the ripe flavors.
