My favorite in the lineup (although these are all brilliant) is the 2020 Vinsobres Rouanne Et Les Crottes, which comes from the middle of the hillside vineyard and more clay and iron soils. Lots of darker, almost blue fruits, violets, smoked herbs, and iron nuances define the bouquet, and it's medium to full-bodied, has ultra-fine tannins, and offers a beautiful mix of both richness and elegance. ...

A spine of iron anchors this densely packed, brooding red, with baked cherry and salty plum taking center stage, supported by loads of salty mineral energy and toasted apple wood. Time in glass reveals attractive violet and green tobacco notes, which offer a refreshing counterpoint to the dark simmering power. Grenache and Syrah. Best from 2025 through 2035. 700 cases made, 400 cases imported.

Touch of maltiness on the nose, along with some oak-derived spice notes such as star anise. Good weight and intensity to the fruit, a firm acid line travelling through it. Tannins are reassuringly brisk and tense. Ends on fruit, with oak spice throughout. A proudly oaked cuvée and a very good one. No destemming.

Region: Rhone Valley

The southern French wine region of the Rhone Valley has been home to wine-makers for over two thousand years, with the first grapevines of the region being cultivated in around 600 BCE when the ancient Greeks arrived with their knowledge of viticulture and eagerness to produce more wine. Today, the region is famed around the world for the excellence of its produce, and has dozens of wineries making the most of the wide range of grape varietals which flourish there. In the northern sub-region, the continental climate and brisk winds coming off the Central Massif allow wineries to grow a smaller range of varietals – predominantly Syrah, Marsanne, Roussane and Viognier, whereas the southern, more Mediterranean sub-region allows far more range. Here, dozens of varietals are grown for the production of white, red and rosé wines, all packed full of flavor and able to express the unique terroir they are grown on.

Country: France

France is renowned across the globe for its quality wines and the careful expertise which goes into making them, but what is truly remarkable about this relatively small country is the vast range of wines it produces in such huge amounts each year. Not only are the finest red wines in the world said to come from the beautiful regions of Bordeaux and Burgundy, but elsewhere in the country we find the Champagne region, and areas such as the Rhone Valley and the Loire, whose white wines consistently receive awards and accolades by the plenty. This range is a result of the great variety of climatic conditions and terrain found in France, coupled with generations of wine makers working within single appellations. Their knowledge of specific terroirs and grape varieties has, over time, perfected the production of wines within their region, and the end results continue to impress the world to this day.
