What a gem this is, full-bodied and powerful with so many nuances, unbelievable. Its long history makes it all the more compelling, as the winery has been operating since 1920. A true wine lover, Yves Cuilleron had only one dream: to produce the finest wines in the beloved Rhône wine region. He started with no winemaking knowledge, but soon the entire wine world knew he had a gift for the ages. He crafted wines with passion and respect for nature, and we can still taste that so many years later. In 1987, a family member took over and invested heavily in modern techniques without losing sight of the old traditions.\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003e The old Staint Joseph Le Lombard vineyard of Cuilleron\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n \nThis Staint Joseph Le Lombard, as mentioned, is made from the Marsanne grape, a grape typically found only in the Rhône. It's not easily cultivated and grown, but thanks to Yves Cuilleron's dedication, it thrives. The vines are located on the hillside of Verlieu. The name of the cuvée refers to the hamlet \"Bois Lombard\" above the vineyards. The terroir is perfect, facing east-southeast, allowing it to be exposed to the wind. After being harvested by hand, this Staint Joseph Le Lombard is aged for a full eight months in oak barrels. This, combined with the aging on the lees, makes for a truly fantastic wine. Production is small, with only 11,000 bottles produced annually.\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003e What does the Cuilleron Stained Joseph Le Lombard taste like?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n \nThis Stained Joseph Le Lombard Domaine Yves Cuilleron is simply delicious. Its aroma is powerful, with notes of nuts, honey, and apricot. The taste is full and intense, with notes of yellow plums and vanilla, nuts, and apricots—pure and clean. It has a powerful palate, even a touch of plumpness, but also minerals and acidity, depth, and intensity—delightfully broad and complex.","brand":"Vinites","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42775779999823,"sku":"7241","price":37.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0594\/9358\/0879\/files\/staint-joseph-le-lombard-domaine-yves-cuilleron_7241.webp?v=1770110457"},{"product_id":"delas-saint-joseph","title":"Delas Saint Joseph","description":"We consider this Delas Saint Joseph to be one of the finest wines from the Rhône. It's made entirely from Syrah grapes, and a rigorous selection process takes place before harvest begins. The grapes are sourced from the Saint-Joseph region between Mauves and Chavanay.\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003e A royal wine\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\n The Delas winery was founded in 1835. Fifty years later, it had built a global reputation and won its first gold medals. After World War II, the company invested heavily in vineyard acquisitions to meet the growing demand for wine. And with success.\n\n\n \nThe vineyard stretches from Chavanay in the north to Guilherand in the south, approximately fifty kilometers along the right bank of the Rhône River: it covers 23 communes in the Ardèche and three in the Loire. The soil here consists of light slate and gneiss over granite bedrock. The climate is temperate continental, with hot, dry summers and normal rainfall the rest of the year. This wine was renowned for its delicacy in the sixteenth century and was served at the table of the kings of France. It was the Jesuits (a monastic community) of Tournon who gave the area its current name in the seventeenth century. Between 1956 and 1969, all the vineyards in this area, formerly known as Côtes du Rhône, were regrouped and planted under the name Saint-Joseph.\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003e A red wine with seductive aromas\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n \nThe grapes are harvested by hand at the peak of ripeness. Fermentation takes place in open concrete vats and is entirely temperature-controlled. The temperature during fermentation ranges between 28 and 32 degrees Celsius. Approximately thirty percent of the Delas Saint Joseph is aged in oak barrels, the remainder in stainless steel to preserve the wine's full, fruity aromas. Full-bodied, well-balanced, and firm tannins, a true reflection of the terroir. A seductive aroma of red fruits such as raspberries, strawberries, and blackberries, with a hint of oak. Delicious with marinated or grilled beef, stews, mixed grills, game, and cheeses.","brand":"Fourcroy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42775782948943,"sku":"8829","price":26.55,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0594\/9358\/0879\/files\/delas-saint-joseph_8829.webp?v=1770111191"}],"url":"https:\/\/perfectewijn.be\/en\/collections\/appellatie-saint-joseph.oembed","provider":"Perfecte Wijn","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
