". . . the quartet at Les Vins de Vienne â Yves Cuilleron, François Villard, Pierre-Jean Villa and Pierre Gaillard â made the best of it, turning out a lovely syrah. It may not be built for the ages, but what it lacks in weight it makes up for with grace. Firm black plums form the basis; black pepper, smoked tea, dried herbs, hints of game as well as peach weave in, lifting and shifting, tempting you back for another sip. For cracked black pepper-coated pork chops."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
Spans the Syrah-driven northern crus of Cote-Rotie and Hermitage and the Grenache-based blends of the warmer south, led by Chateauneuf-du-Pape. Its wines are known for power, spice and warmth.
The northern Rhone's most prestigious red appellation, producing perfumed, elegant Syrah, often co-fermented with a little Viognier, from steep terraced slopes.
Syrah (Shiraz) produces dark, powerful reds with black fruit, pepper and smoked-meat notes. It yields elegant, perfumed wines in the northern Rhone and bold, rich styles in Australia.
