Pierre Jean Villa’s Preface Saint-Joseph 2023 offers a vibrant Syrah expression from granite-rich slopes, with bright blackberry and plum fruits laced with black pepper and olive notes. Subtle floral hints and a touch of thyme add herbal nuance, while the east-facing terroir delivers elegant tension and freshness. Lighter and more approachable than Hermitage, it balances moderate tannins with lively acidity for early enjoyment. The Mistral wind’s influence shines through in its refined, mineral-driven finish.
Serve slightly chilled in a Burgundy glass and pair with grilled lamb chops.
