St-Joseph Rouge Pitrou Dard & Ribo (Magnum)

René-Jean Dard and François Ribo started their domaine in 1983 in Tain-l`Hermitage, from a hectare of Dard`s family vines, and are pioneers of natural wine in the northern Rhône: organic, low or no sulphur, no filtering. Pitrou, from Saint-Joseph, is mostly a late-picked Roussanne white; the red is released only in some vintages. Jamie Goode calls them one of the top producers of the Northern Rhône.
