Viniou Reviews

The Pierre Gonon Saint-Joseph 2018 is a remarkable representation of the Northern Rhône region, known for its Syrah-based wines. This vintner employs traditional methods, with an emphasis on organic farming, highlighting the true essence of its terroir. The 2018 vintage showcases the aromatic depth and structured elegance of Syrah, with notes of dark fruit, spice, and a hint of minerality derived from the granitic soils. The Northern Rhône climate, with its influence from both the Mediterranean and continental weather patterns, bestows this wine with a balanced acidity and a nuanced complexity. Pierre Gonon is renowned for its dedication to quality and authenticity, solidifying its esteemed reputation within the wine community.

For culinary pairings, consider dishes that accentuate the bold flavours and elegance of this Saint-Joseph. Grilled lamb chops with rosemary or a rich beef stew can complement the wine's complexity. Additionally, region-specific dishes like cassoulet or a hearty duck confit would resonate beautifully with the spicy and fruity notes of the wine. These choices will enhance the wine's robust character while allowing its sophisticated layers to unfold on the palate.

To fully appreciate the Pierre Gonon Saint-Joseph 2018, serve it at a temperature of around 16-18°C (60-64°F). Decanting for approximately 1-2 hours will allow the wine to breathe and reveal its depth and complexity. Begin your tasting by observing its deep garnet colour, then swirl the glass to release its aromas of blackberry, black pepper, and a subtle earthiness. Finally, sip slowly, savouring the harmonious interplay of tannins and acidity, which underpin the wine's lingering finish.
