It's becoming clear that the 2021 vintage in the northern Rhône is special.
It's no surprise that Gonon made some of our favorite wines of the vintage. A couple weeks ago, we tasted both Gonon's white and red Saint-Joseph, and they showed beautifully.
I'm really excited to offer Gonon's 2021 Saint-Joseph Rouge, sharply priced at $139.95.
In the northern Rhône, the 2021 vintage is beautifully structured, vibrant, and precise. Gonon thrived in the vintage.

Gonon's style is delicate, precise, and honest. The wines flaunt the elegant side of Saint-Joseph. The 2021 exemplifies the finessed, deeply mineral, and aromatically lifted style. They're simply gorgeous in their nuance, depth, and intricately-detailed length.
The amount of gracefulness that Gonon is able to coax from the vintage is extraordinary.
On paper, Saint-Joseph may come in behind Hermitage, Côte-Rôtie, and Cornas in terms of prestigious northern Rhône appellations. However, that would never occur to you when tasting Gonon's 2021 Saint-Joseph. This is an incredible success that shouldn't be missed.
