Emmanuel Darnaud, Saint-Joseph Dardouille other_regions_australia the 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon ReserveFrom one of the most talented vignerons in the Rhne, the 2021 Saint Joseph Lieu Dit La Dardouille has a ruby purple hue to go with a perfumed, complex bouquet of red and blue fruits, violets, peppery herbs, and an undeniable sense of minerality. It's balanced, medium bodied, has supple yet present tannins, and outstanding length.
