Domaine des Lises Maxime Graillot Saint-Joseph 2017 is an exceptional red wine from the prestigious Saint-Joseph appellation, located in the heart of the Northern Rhône. This wine is crafted by Maxime Graillot, son of renowned winemaker Alain Graillot, adding a family legacy to its production. It is made entirely from selected Syrah grapes, allowing the pure, elegant character of this variety to express itself in the granitic soils and steep slopes of the region. The philosophy behind the vineyard and winery work is respectful and precise, resulting in an authentic, balanced wine with notable aging potential. In tasting, it presents a beautiful intense and bright violet-red color. On the nose, it reveals a complex aromatic profile, offering notes of ripe black fruits like blackberry and plum, along with fresh violets, fine spices, and a subtle minerality. On the palate, it is a concentrated and elegant wine, where the tannins are firm yet polished, complemented by balanced acidity and a silky texture that envelops the palate. The finish is long and persistent, marked by fruity and spicy memories, faithfully reflecting the character of Syrah and the typicity of Saint-Joseph.
