This cuvée blends fruit from multiple vineyard sites in Saint-Joseph, capturing the essence of the appellation with 20% whole-cluster fermentation. The 2022 vintage—the driest since 2011—delivered concentrated, ripe fruit with fresh structure. Red and black berries, graphite, and crushed stone mark the bouquet, while the medium to full-bodied palate shows layered fruit and building yet fine tannins. Approachable now but will reward cellaring through the next decade.

"The 2022 Saint-Joseph François de Tournon trumps the 2021 I tasted last year, opening with intricate cedar, black plum, licorice and dried violet aromas. Gently framed by ripe tannins, the savory 2022 was made with 20% whole clusters during fermentation, adding stemminess to the aromatic profile. Round and concentrated, the 2022 ends with focus on the harmonious finish." —Nicolas Greinacher

"Crafted from own and purchased grapes, all situated in the communes of Saint-Jean de Muzol and Vion, the 2022 Saint-Joseph Francois de Tournon is fermented with 20% whole bunches. Evoking a spicy, oaky character with aromas of dark berries, licorice and iris, it's medium to full-bodied with a dense and deep palate characterized by a moderately tannic but assertive frame that segues into a long, austere and slightly oaky finish brought by the malolactic fermentation that took place in barrels. Fully matured in barrels, 30% of which were new, this well-crafted wine shows aging potential. Allowing it to mellow for 3-4 years in the cellar is recommended." —Yohan Castaing

"Stylish and polished, with dark berry and plum notes bolstered by black tea tannins and a taut line of mineral energy. Sweet cedar spice and mesquite elements reveal generous oak polish, which will integrate with time. The finish is succulent, with vibrant acidity. Offers ripe fruit, but there's still a lot of graphite minerality simmering underneath. Best from 2026 through 2032."
