Tasting notes
Always striving to offer the best, this high-end cuvée from the Saint-Joseph appellation is a true "reflection" of François Villard's talent. Body and concentration are the order of the day in this slender, firm and characterful wine where notes of white pepper, raspberry, cedar and spices work wonders.

About this wine
Domaine François Villard's Reflet is a distinctive expression of Saint-Joseph, one of the northern Rhône's most prestigious appellations. Crafted from Syrah grown on the region's steep, granite-rich slopes, this wine embodies the terroir's characteristic intensity and structure. The estate is renowned for its commitment to traditional winemaking methods and meticulous vineyard management, producing wines of remarkable depth and balance.
Reflet showcases the classic profile of Saint-Joseph Syrah: firm tannins, concentrated red fruit, and elegant peppery and cedar notes. At 13.5% ABV, the wine achieves excellent harmony between power and finesse. Its food-friendly nature makes it ideal for a diverse range of pairings, from grilled meats and venison to mushroom-based dishes, charcuterie, and aged cheeses like Comté. The wine's structure also complements tomato-based preparations and truffle dishes beautifully.
This is a wine for serious collectors and those seeking authentic, terroir-driven Rhône reds. Whether enjoyed at your villa, yacht, or on the dining table, Reflet delivers the complexity and sophistication expected from one of France's finest wine regions.
