'Deep-pitched black/blue fruit aromas are energized by cracked pepper and smoky mineral notes. Densely packed bitter cherry, cassis, licorice and candied violet flavors reveal a hint of olive on the back half. Chewy tannins add grip to a long, smoky finish that leaves a dark chocolate note behind.'

A bit darker in hue and fruit than the fun, charming 2018, Perret's 2019 Saint Joseph verges on being too serious, with a dusty touch of tannin on the finish. Smoky and spicy up front, with notes of black cherries and cassis, it's full-bodied, rich and velvety, easily capable of aging a few years and drinking well through 2030 or so. Drink: 2023-2030
