Wine Expert Note:

This wine is a remarkable expression of the Saint-Joseph appellation. Domaine Pierre Gonon is known for producing exceptional wines, and Les Oliviers is no exception. On the nose, this wine offers a complex bouquet of dark fruits, such as blackberries and plums, accompanied by hints of black pepper and earthy undertones. The aromas are intense and inviting, promising a rich and satisfying experience. The palate is equally impressive, with a full-bodied and velvety texture that coats the mouth. The flavors of ripe black fruits continue to dominate, complemented by notes of licorice, tobacco, and a touch of smokiness. The tannins are well-integrated, providing structure and balance to the wine. The finish is long and lingering, leaving a lasting impression of dark fruit flavors and a subtle spiciness. This wine has great aging potential and will continue to evolve and develop over the years.
