Domaine Pierre Gonon
Likeable brothers Pierre and Jean Gonon make exemplars of fine St Joseph wines. Their red wine is sourced from six hectares covering the three best communes in the appellation, namely Tournon, Mauves and St Jean de Muzols. Pierre and Jean Gonon farm dramatically steep vineyards and back-breaking work follows organic practices, with no use of herbicides or pesticides and only natural composts to nurture the uncompromising soil of decomposed granite and calcareous limestone
