"One of my favorite cuvees out there, Ferrandoâs 2009 Chateauneuf du Pape Colombis is a 100% Grenache cuvee that comes all from sandy soils. Like most 2009s, itâs an exuberant, sexy beast that has tons of sweet kirsch, garrigue, dried herbs and sandy/loamy soil notes. Seemingly on a fast-evolutionary track, with plenty of sweet fruit and a great finish, I wouldnât delay gratification on this beauty and would plan on finishing my last bottle within the next decade."

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 southern Rhone's most famous appellation, blending Grenache with Syrah, Mourvedre and more into rich, warming, spice-laden reds from galet-strewn soils.
A warm-climate red giving generous, high-alcohol wines of red fruit and spice. It anchors southern Rhone blends and old-vine wines in Spain and Australia.
