Critic reviews
"The saturated, inky purple-colored 2015 St Joseph Vieilles Vignes is a deep, concentrated and structured wine that offers obvious minerality intermixed with notions of black and blue fruits, graphite, toasty oak and roasted herbs. Possessing high extract, notable freshness and ripe tannin, give bottles 2-3 years of cellaring and enjoy over the following decade."

"(all old Serine vines and made with 50 percent whole clusters; raised in 50 percent new oak casks) Bright purple. A highly perfumed, complex bouquet evokes ripe black and blue fruits, licorice, vanilla and spicecake. Concentrated blackberry, cola and violet pastille flavors show excellent depth and clarity, and a spine of juicy acidity adds structure. Effortlessly marries richness and vivacity and finishes very long and gently sweet; supple tannins come in late and fold into the sappy dark fruit."
