Jean-Francois Jacouton Syrah A Deux Pas 2023
A deux pas' means 'a stone's throw,' and that is precisely where these vines sit relative to Saint-Joseph. Jean-Francois Jacouton grew up working his grandfather's Saint-Joseph parcels, took over the family vines in 2003, and began bottling under his own name in 2010. This Syrah comes from 35-year-old vines on granite and alluvial soils in the Ardeche, just outside the famous appellation lines. The winemaking is old-school and unfussy: fully destemmed, a couple of weeks on the skins, then ten months split between old barrels and wooden vats. What you get is northern Rhone Syrah with the pepper and the earth fully intact, from a grower who learned on the hill itself.
