Saint-Joseph: the best in red and white
Situated on the right bank of the Rhône, the Saint Joseph appellation stretches for almost 60 kilometers from north to south, between Chavanay and Guilherand-Granges, opposite Valence. Its AOC decree, published in 1956, covered just six communes at the time. Revised twice, it now covers 1415 hectares of vines, planted in 23 communes in the Ardèche and Loire departments.
Saint Joseph from generation to generation
Saint-Joseph is an appellation in the northern Rhône Valley, covering 26 communes in the Ardèche and Loire departments. Known for its Syrah-based red wines, the appellation also produces between 10 and 15% white wines from the Roussanne and Marsanne grapes. Land prices remain affordable for young people in this AOC, making it easier for families to pass on land or create new estates. Portraits of the new faces of Saint Joseph.
