The grapes
Mourvèdre
Best known in Bandol, Southern Rhône, Spain
A dark, savoury red grape that loves Mediterranean heat. Blackberry, game, leather and herbs, with firm tannins and real depth. The star grape of Bandol and a key part of Southern Rhône blends; in Spain it is called Monastrell.
Syrah
Best known in Northern Rhône, Washington State
A dark, spicy red grape. Blackberry, black pepper, smoked meat and violets, with firm structure. Elegant and savoury in the Northern Rhône, in places like Hermitage and Côte-Rôtie; in Australia the same grape goes by Shiraz.
Where it's from
Rhône Valley
France
Split in two by character. North: intense Syrah at Hermitage and Côte-Rôtie; floral Viognier at Condrieu. South: sun-soaked Grenache blends, Châteauneuf-du-Pape, rosé from Tavel. A region of contrasts and consistent brilliance.
