Southern Rhône

Southern Rhône

Southern Rhône, located in the Rhône wine region in Southern France, is renowned among wine enthusiasts for producing rich, flavoursome wines with distinctive character. Characterised by a Mediterranean climate with bountiful sunshine, the region has optimal conditions for producing robust red, white, and rosé wines.

Chief amongst the selections from Southern Rhône is the iconic Châteauneuf-du-Pape, a robust red wine blend graced with depth and complexity. This blend is typically dominated by Grenache, backed up with Syrah and Mourvèdre grapes, which compose an intricate symphony of flavours and aromas that range from dark fruits to smoky leather.

Another classic from Southern Rhône is the Côtes du Rhône, an easily approachable red wine that's fruity and medium-bodied, offering excellent value for money. Bursting with red fruit and spice tones, this affable wine provides delightful hints of the region's terroir.

The region's vineyards are peppered with pebble-rich soils, which absorb the sun's warmth and radiate it back to the vines during the cool nights, aiding the ripening process and contributing distinct mineral tones to the wines.

Southern Rhône's white wines, though lesser-known, offer a truly compelling palette of flavours. Varieties like Grenache Blanc, Roussanne, and Marsanne contribute to beautifully aromatic and well-rounded white wines, with peachy profiles, velvety textures and notes of honey and almond.

The rosé wines of the region, often Cinsault and Grenache-based, are heralded for their interesting mix of fruit, spice, and floral elements with a dry finish, making them a refreshing choice for various palates.

Visitors to the Southern Rhône can look forward to exploring its succession of charming wine villages, each boasting wine houses and cellars offering sampling of the region's exceptional varieties. This, paired with Southern Rhône's breathtaking landscapes, brims with hillsides etched with vineyards, makes it a wine lover's paradise.
