The Chave family has made wine in the Rhône Valley since 1481, passing the craft from father to son for 16 generations. Jean-Louis Chave continues this legacy with rare, classically made wines that many believe best express the great terroir of Hermitage.

This Saint Joseph Rouge is sourced from reclaimed family vineyards in the historic heart of the appellation—terraced and replanted by Jean-Louis himself in villages like Tournon, Mauves, St.-Jean-de-Muzols, and Lemps. These ancient plots reflect his life’s mission: to restore Saint Joseph’s prestige.

Few domaines deliver with this level of dedication, consistency, and depth—and this wine is a true reflection of that.
