A few to explore

Subregions

Southern Rhône — The Southern Rhône is the larger, better-known half, Mediterranean in climate — sunny, herb-scented, olive-growing, and swept by the savage cold Mistral wind that cools the vines and concentrates the grapes. Its soils are fundamentally different from the granite north: in many parts vines grow in a carpet of large rounded riverbed stones (galets), elsewhere in clay, sandy limestone or gravel. GRENACHE — not syrah — is the leading red grape, and southern reds are almost always BLENDS of many varieties (grenache led, with syrah for color and spice and mourvèdre for structure and cinsaut), because in the hot dry climate no single grape holds enough focus on its own. Its great appellation is Châteauneuf-du-Pape, followed by Gigondas and Vacqueyras; Tavel is the capital of rosé; and most Côtes-du-Rhône comes from here.
