Gouye Saint Joseph Blanc

Located on the plateau of Gouye, from which it actually borrows its name, Domaine de Gouye shows an absolutely timeless feel and tranquillity. Mistral passing through the vineyards and Ramses, the estate horse ploughs the vines are the most vibrant movements in between. Along with the stumps of Syrah planted since the 50s, there are also a few plantings of white Marsanne, which is the main white variety both here and on the Hermitage hill opposite. Philippe Desbos follows the same traditional philosophy for his rare white, with the vines ploughed with the help of a horse, the fermentations are spontaneous and the wine is matured for 12 months in tanks and old foudres, developing a wonderful creamy texture and a mineral focus that gives exceptional energy to the whites.
