Paul Jaboulet Aîné’s Saint-Joseph “La Croix des Vignes” red is a prestigious cuvée from the northern Rhône Valley, born from a confidential terroir of approximately 1.5 hectares located above Mauves and Tournon-sur-Rhône. The vines, facing south and planted in 1998, are rooted in degraded granite soils that favor the pure and taut expression of the Syrah. This wine reveals a deep nose of black fruits, violet, black olive and pepper, with mineral nuances characteristic of granite. The palate is dense, elegant and structured, with beautiful tension, racy tannins and a long and spicy finish. A terroir wine par excellence, “La Croix des Vignes” pairs perfectly with noble red meats, game or stews, while offering excellent aging potential.

Founded in 1834 on the Hermitage hill in Tain-l’Hermitage, the Paul Jaboulet Aîné estate oversees an exceptional winemaking heritage, bringing together the most renowned terroirs of the northern Rhône Valley. Today, it oversees 105 hectares of vineyards, stretching from Cornas to Côte-Rôtie, in the heart of the most prestigious appellations of the northern Rhône Valley.

Thanks to precise vinification and meticulous work in the vineyards, the estate crafts tailor-made vintages that accurately express the richness and diversity of their terroirs of origin. Since 2016, all of its wines have been certified organic, demonstrating a strong commitment to quality and respect for the environment.

Paul Jaboulet Aîné thus embodies the quintessence of the great wines of the Rhône Valley, between tradition, high standards and excellence.
