Product Notes

André Perret Saint-Joseph Les Grisières is a compelling wine exuding rich notes of luscious black fruitfulness, subtle spices, and a hint of oak. It possesses a concentrated core of complexity, augmented by its seamless blend of Syrah grapes from the Rhône region in France. This full-bodied red encapsulates a velvety smooth palate with harmonious tannins lending depth and structure. The delectable taste elegantly finishes off with a persistent, smoky aftertaste. A perfect complement to hearty meat dishes, Les Grisières wine exemplifies André Perret’s extraordinary vinicultural talent, delivering a delicately balanced, yet profoundly expressive French wine experience.

Tasting Notes

A big-structured wine but with very noble tannins. Statuesque but finely-chiselled. Intensely salty bramble, black cherry and cassis fruit. Explosive, large-framed flavours with huge depth

About the Winery

André Perret

Nestled in the heart of France's Northern Rhône region, André Perret winery is a treasure trove of exceptional wines. Tucked away in the quaint village of Chavannay, about an hour's drive south of Lyon, this family-run vineyard is a must-visit for any oenophile seeking traditional wines with rich and expressive flavours.

The winery's story began with André Perret who inherited a small parcel of land in the 1980s. An accomplished botanist, he brought a scientific touch to his viticulture that differed greatly from the intuitive methods commonly practiced by local winemakers. André's expertise in understanding the soil's dynamics coupled with his penchant for traditional techniques elevated the quality of the wine, helping his relatively small winery to compete with the larger vineyards in the area.

Today, André Perret is known for their Condrieu and Saint-Joseph wines, produced primarily from Viognier and Syrah respectively. The Condrieu is celebrated for its seductive, floral aroma and opulent palate, while the Saint Joseph showcases the depth and complexity that can be achieved with Rhône's iconic Syrah grape.

André's commitment to low-yield, high-quality viticulture is apparent in every bottle. The wines are fermented in steel vats before being transferred to oak barrels for aging. This process allows each wine to express the unique terroir of their vineyards and imbued with a character that is unmistakably "Perret".

For the serious enthusiasts, the winery offers tastings by appointment. What could be better than sipping on sumptuous vino as you overlook the beautiful rolling vineyards, under the grandeur of French skies?

André Perret winery, with it's time-honoured methods, exceptional wines and idyllic setting, is everything you could want from a French vineyard, and perhaps, even a touch more.
