Jérôme Coursodon, with his father Pierre alongside, produces a stunning range of wines from the historic village of Mauves in the original sector of Saint-Joseph.
The Coursodon family has true roots farming the granite in and around Mauves back to the mid 1800’s and Jerome’s grandfather Gustav was one of the leaders of Domaine bottling and organising the St. Joseph appellation in the 1950’s.
Viticulture work done by hand. Mechanization not possible. Treatments done on men’s back. High specific density of plantation: 8500 plants/ha
Grape variety: 100% Syrah
Tasting Notes: Very dark crimson colour with purple reflections. Concentrated nose, red fruit, spicy. In the mouth length and power with silky tannins completed by a very well balanced structure. This rich and velvety wine will reveal great aromas within a few years.
Pairings: The Chef and the sommelier from the restaurant l’Amphitryon in Lorient (Morbihan), suggest that you treat yourself with small hare tournedos, accompanied by vegetables.
