Region Description

Located in southeastern France, between the city of Lyon and the region of Provence, this area’s sunny and hot growing season is reflected in its full-bodied wines. In the southern Rhone, the Grenache grape makes wines that are high in alcohol and low in tannin. The most famous wine from the southern Rhone is Châteauneuf-du-Pape. This blended red wine can contain as many as thirteen grape varieties, but most often includes Grenache, Mourvèdre, and Syrah. It is full-bodied, rich and ripe. In the northern Rhone, most wines are made from the Syrah grape and are rich and full-bodied. Two of the best are Côte Rôtie, which is soft, fruity, and can carry the flavors of green olives and raspberries, and Red Hermitage, which is a complex, tannic wine that should develop for several years, and can be aged for thirty years or more.
