Dom. Mucyn 2016 St. Joseph Rouge "Les Salamandres"
There is no question that the best St. Joseph wines bring an added dimension of power and concentration to
the table and this is no exception – except the premium you pay is so negligible! This beauty has the hallmark
tensile strength of the vintage and a flowery Syrah perfume of unmissable class.
