The Syrah vines are planted on sandy soils on the northernmost tip of the Saint-Joseph appellation, at an altitude of 300 meters.
This Saint-Joseph has aromas of black cherry, raspberry and violet with a spicy touch after aeration. A good suppleness in the mouth with the fruit still very present.
A wine with a very interesting price-pleasure ratio.

François Merlin founded the domain of the same name in the early 90s. It is located in Saint-Michel-sur-Rhône, in the Rhône Valley. The 4 hectare vineyard stretches between Condrieu and Chavanay, on southeast facing parcels. The hillsides are on the right bank of the northern Rhône Valley.
François Merlin produces wines in 3 prestigious appellations: Côte-Rôtie, Saint-Joseph and Condrieu. His complex and well-balanced wines are the result of a great deal of care in the vineyards as well as in the cellars.
Laurent, François' son, joined the estate with the same desire to make wines that best express the terroirs on which they are found and that give great pleasure to those who drink them.
