Jeb Dunnuck Tasting Note

The appellation release sports a deep purple/ruby hue and offers violets, black olives, and gamey, iron nuances on the nose. It's medium-bodied, nicely concentrated, balanced, and elegant, with fine tannins. While it doesn't quite have the density or minerality of the Le Berceau, the 2023 Saint Joseph shines on all accounts and is an incredibly satisfying Saint-Joseph to drink over the coming 10-15 years. There are roughly 34,000 bottles produced. Drink 2026-2041.

About the Producer

About the Producer

Domaine Bernard Gripa, an iconic signature of the Northern Rhône Valley, is firmly rooted in Mauves, its village of origin. The adventure began in the 1970s, when Bernard Gripa decided to master the entire process, from vine to glass. Today, his son Fabrice continues this quest for excellence, infusing a personal approach that elevates the terroir. The vines flourish on granitic hillsides, giving rise to wines with a distinct minerality, often possessing great aging potential. The Saint-Joseph and Saint-Péray appellations are at the heart of production, explored in both red and white with equal mastery. The Saint-Joseph Le Berceau cuvée, sourced from old vines, is a flagship expression of the estate, in both red and white. We also highly regard the Saint-Péray Les Figuiers and Les Pins, as well as the Saint-Joseph Parady. Domaine Bernard Gripa wines are distinguished by their balance and finesse, offering remarkable interpretations of the Saint-Joseph appellation that are just waiting to be discovered. A beautiful family story that continues to make the wines of the Rhône Valley shine. Among the most sought-after cuvées are Domaine Bernard Gripa Saint-Joseph, Domaine Bernard Gripa Saint-Joseph Le Berceau, and Domaine Bernard Gripa Saint-Péray Les Figuiers—useful benchmarks for understanding the identity of the estate.
