For the better part of the past decade, Jean-Louis Chave has spent much of his time in St. Joseph bolstering his vineyard holdings. He revealed this to us when we visited his Domain back in January (it seems so long ago). Jean-Louis wears his passion for the region on his sleeve and he is proud of his work. Of course he should be. Not only for the quality of the wines he produces here but because of the huge investment he's put into the project. With steep hillsides that can only be worked by hand, it took him 15 years to plant one of his vineyards
Jean-Louis says he views his work here as a reclamation project. Though his name infinitely famous in Hermitage, here, in St. Joseph he is working to restoring his family's legacy in the area. Highlighting the granite in his vineyards, Chave pulls wonderful expressions of syrah in his 2017 vintage. This is not to be missed.
