The warmer half of Malsert's parcel pair, and the more generous of his two Saint-Josephs: Lou Taissou faces due south on the granite soils of Ozon, and it rounds out where Les Sabots de Coppi cuts. Jean-François, Jef to everyone, ran a natural wine bar in Tournon-sur-Rhône before taking over his grandfather's terraced vines at Sécheras in 2011, vineyards that had never seen a chemical treatment because the old man sold his fruit to négociants rather than vinify it himself. He ferments with native yeasts on a mix of whole clusters and destemmed fruit, ages in neutral demi-muids and amphora, and bottles unfined and unfiltered with only a whisper of sulfur. 2024 was one of the wettest years on record in the Rhône and mildew cut yields hard, but the surviving Syrahs are aromatic, fresh and drinkable early. Spicy, mineral and difficult to leave in the cellar.

More about Domaine des l'Iserand (Jean-Francois Malsert)

Jean-François Malsert was a devoted wine bar owner before founding Domaine de l'Iserand in 2011 on his grandfather's vineyard in the Northern Rhône. Four hectares of Syrah on granite and mica-schist, farmed organically, fermented whole-cluster, aged in amphorae and demi-muids. His VdF Syrah at around $20 offers great Northern Rhône terroir at a price that makes sense.

Steak frites, braised short ribs, merguez with couscous, or a mushroom and thyme tart.

Riper and rounder in style: black plum, cured olive, violets and pepper. Medium- to full-bodied, with supple tannins and fresh acidity carrying a long, savory finish.
