"A lively, textural and well-composed Saint-Joseph with aromas of dark cherries, plums, violets and wild herbs. Medium-bodied with finely grained tannins. Ample and energetic, with a velvety texture nicely coated by refined tannins. Elegant and vivid, with a poised and dense finish. Drink or hold."

"The flagship 2022 Saint Joseph Le Paradis Saint Pierre comes from a single parcel of vines and pure granite soils. Cassis, smoked meats, crushed stone, and peppery, bouquet garni-like notes all shine in this powerful, concentrated, beautifully balanced Saint Joseph, which has ripe, velvety tannins and a good sense of freshness. It's ripe yet stays vibrant and light on its feet."

"The deep purple-hued 2022 Saint-Joseph Le Paradis Saint-Pierre introduces itself with a marked leafy streak paired with alluring raspberry jam, graphite, crushed violets and a touch of cedar. Medium- to full-bodied, structured and layered, the ambitious 2022 achieves ample energy and checks out with drive on the savory finale. That said, it needs at least two more years in a cool cellar to fully come together."
