Where it comes from
Rhône Valley, France
Rhône Valley (Vallée du Rhône) follows the Rhône river through southeastern France and splits into two distinct halves with very different personalities.
Grenache
Grenache is a red grape that originated in the Aragón region of Spain, where it is called Garnacha, and it is widely grown across the Mediterranean.
Mourvèdre
Mourvèdre is a red grape of Spanish origin, at home around Valencia and Murcia, where it is called Monastrell.
Cinsault
Cinsault is a red grape long grown in France's Languedoc, valued for its soft, fruity charm and its role in blends and rosés across the Mediterranean.
Syrah
Syrah is a red grape from the Northern Rhône in France, responsible for some of the world's most dramatic, savoury reds.
