Domaine Philippe Faury, Saint Joseph Rouge 2010 one of Kermit Lynch’s Favorites.
The St. Joseph appellation rarely meets the levels of excellence of Cote Rotie. St, Joseph is located between the appellations of Cote-Rotie to the north and Hermitage to the south, the two most prestigious in the Rhone Valley. As weather patterns are changing St. Joseph wines reach maturity fairly quickly, in some cases the quality and the price tag are much better than their neighbors to the north and south.
