I'm happy to offer a rare (and small) parcel of back-vintage Gonon Saint-Joseph.
What the Gonon brothers achieve on the steep granite slopes of Saint-Joseph is amazing. Gonon is easily one of our favorite producers in the Northern Rhône.

Gonon's wines assume the classical proportions of the Northern Rhône at its best. They are pure and clear with an intricate and detailed presentation of blackberries, olives, violets, spice, and forest floor notes wrapped around a smoky minerality.
On release, the 2015 was an extraordinary example of the wine. We opened a bottle in December that was stunning. It was a dream brew of concentration with clarity and finesse. Gonon's 2015 Saint-Joseph boasts a pristine expression and serious, finely detailed length.
Pierre and Jean Gonon make some of the most compelling wines coming out of the Northern Rhône. There's no doubt that the 2015 will serve as a monument to this estate.
