Domaine des Pierres Seches 1930 Gauthier Sylvain Saint-Joseph Syrah 2021

The estate’s very limited, very exceptional selection of pure Syrah from one of the appellation’s most hallowed and historic terroirs in Saint-Jean de Muzols. The vineyard ‘Aubert’ in Saint-Jean has been planted to vine since before the first world war; for years, Saint-Joseph legend Raymond Trollat tended ‘Aubert,’ and some of his (and the appellation’s) finest wines came from this high-altitude, stony vineyard. (Sylvain himself made an ‘Aubert’ cuvee in previous vintages; now his holdings are smaller, and they are all reserved for this ‘1930.’) A selection of very old vine fruit.
