Wines from the Rhone Valley could almost be said to combine the best virtues of Burgundy (sensual aromatics) and Bordeaux (depth and body). They have abundant keeping qualities yet are approachable and fun to drink in their youth. The finest wines from the northern Rhone come mainly from Syrah (reds) and Viognier (whites), whereas in the hotter south the wines tend to be a mixture of several grape varieties (as many as thirteen in the case of some Chateauneuf du Pape!).

Made with 6 of the classic Rhone varietals, this is a complex Cotes du Rhone yet still light and fruity. The nose and palate are dominated with fresh red and black berry fruit with hints of liquorice. The fine grained tannins and structure without interfering with the elegant properties of the fruit.

This is a little star that drinks well above its appellation. The wine shows great structure and balance with loads of developed fruit aromas and flavours combined with a good level of acidity to make it a perfect food wine. This inexpensive red is a terrific partner to all red meats and game and offers great value.

A classy red Rhone just bursting with ripe blackcurrant and blueberry fruit, spice and hints of liquorice. Really impressive of the palate, full and robust yet with elegance and finesse.

This stunning white Cotes du Rhone has 20 grams residual sugar which not only gives a hint of sweetness but also a richness on the palate. Aromas of blossom with citric notes give way to a rich, well proportioned palate with hints of almonds balancing the peachy fruit flavours.

Memories of Provence! A nose of white blossom and white fruits is mirrored on the palate with a refreshing acidity. The wine just oozes aromas and flavours of the South of France.
