Full-bodied, richly tannic, even a bit chewy, Perret's 2015 Saint Joseph is a bit atypical for this cuvée. It delivers savory notes of black olives and roasted meat alongside hints of graham crackers and black cherries, reflecting the vintage's low yields and warm temperatures, yet it ends long and velvety. It would benefit from a couple of years in the cellar, then should drink well for the next decade.
