Of all the French wine, Rhone reds are consistently some of the most popular and best sellers, thanks in part to the wide variety of Rhone wine that's available. You'll find stellar value bottles under $10, terrifically complex mid-range wines, and the coveted and collectible Chateauneuf du Papes.
Northern Rhone wines are rustic and traditional Syrah-based reds, while the wines from the southern Rhone are more Grenache-heavy (though there are dozens of permitted grapes for the area). The whites are generally richer in style, combining Grenache Blanc, Viognier, Roussanne and/or Marsanne. In addition, the roses from this area are some of the country's best.

SP8989 pts. - Wine Spectator - Dec 15, 2016 Very fresh, with unadorned plum and black cherry fruit streaming through, backed by a pretty violet note on the finish.

VN8888 pts. - Vinous - Jun 2016 Vivid ruby-red. Jammy red and dark berry scents, enlivened by a suggestion of white pepper. Juicy and light on its feet, offering gently sweet black raspberry and spicecake flavors that loosen up on the back half. Finishes smooth and gently tannic, showing good cling and lingering sweetness.Premier SelectPremier Select wines are handpicked by our staff from amongst thousands of wines for their exceptional quality.

RP8989 pts. - Robert Parker’s The Wine Advocate - 1st Jan 2015 The 2012 Costières de Nîmes St Cecile checks in as a blend of 45% Syrah, 45% Mourvèdre and the rest Grenache. Aged all in 33% new 400-Liter French oak barrels, it has a racy feel with its cassis, black raspberry, licorice and wood spice aromas and flavors. It still has some oak to integrated, and on the palate, it has a seamless, lively and fresh style that keeps it easy drinking. The acidity level will be something to watch here, and I’d give bottles another year or so, then plan on drinking them over the following 4–5.Premier SelectPremier Select wines are handpicked by our staff from amongst thousands of wines for their exceptional quality.

SP9191 pts. - Wine Spectator - Feb 28, 2021 Ripe and friendly, with a blast of plum and boysenberry compote flavors laced with licorice and backed by a twinge of lavender on the plump finish. Drink now through 2022. 35,000 cases made, 20,000 cases imported.
RP9292 pts. - Robert Parker’s The Wine Advocate - 31st Oct 2017 This is another example of a 2015 Chateauneuf du Pape that’s delicious already. This full-bodied blend of 60% Grenache, 15% Syrah, 15% Mourvèdre and 10% Cinsault is creamy and lush, with cherry fruit and hints of toasted almond on the soft, easygoing finish.SP9292 pts. - Wine Spectator - Dec 31, 2017 Fresh and rounded, with a rather ebullient core of cassis, plum sauce and melted licorice flavors driving along, backed by notes of warm fruitcake and fig preserves. Frankly fruit-driven, showing enough freshness to stay balanced and focused. Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre and Cinsault. Drink now through 2027. 3,000 cases made.WE9292 pts. - Wine Enthusiast - 3/1/2018 Rippling, ripe fruit counteracts deep mineral tones in this bold, brooding wine. Black plum and berry notes are spiced with anise and vanilla, but also shades of dried sage, thyme and earth. It’s a concentrated red with a slightly drying, emery-board finish.
JD96+96–99 pts. - Jeb Dunnuck - August 16, 2019 What could end up being the wine of the vintage, the 2018 Châteauneuf Du Pape Colombis is basically all Grenache brought up in demi-muids. It exhibits a deep purple color as well as a blockbuster bouquet of blackcurrants, smoked herbs, ground pepper, and cured meats. Deep, full-bodied, powerful, and tasting like the essence of Provence, it has sweet tannins, the rounded, sexy style of the vintage, and a finish that won’t quit. Love Grenache? Buy this wine.RP95+95–97 pts. - Robert Parker’s The Wine Advocate - 30th Aug 2019 Looking much suaver and more elegant than the recently bottled 2017, the 2018 Chateauneuf du Pape Colombis features aromas and flavors of nearly crystalline-pure red berries, accented by hints of star anise, ground allspice and orange zest. Full-bodied and silky-textured, it’s a beauty in the making, with a fine bone structure supporting succulent, well-toned flesh.SP9595 pts. - Wine Spectator - Oct 21, 2020 This is a beauty, with a seductive display of Turkish coffee, singed alder, steeped plum and warmed anise aromas and flavors that move in unison, backed by a subtle garrigue note through the finish. A late echo of warm earth adds a finishing touch. Best from 2021 through 2037.
