The vineyards used for Offerus are located in two distinct St. Joseph areas. The communities of Mauves, Tournon and St. Jean de Muzols yield over 80% of the blend are owned by Jean-Louis. These southern vineyard sites express tightly wound tannins, spice and power; they add structure and depth to complete the harmony of Offerus. The remaining vineyards are located in more northerly communities around Serrières, and even these are farmed mainly by Jean-Louis, though he doesn't own the vineyards. This northerly soil produces wines which are more elegant with incredible purity, definition and focus. The combined sites and Chave's meticulous winemaking produces a spicy, smoky, mineral, dark-fruited, aromatic gem with a long, concentrated, and deeply satisfying finish.
