"A candidate for wine of the vintage is the 2000 Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvee Boisrenard. Subtle aromas of vanillin intermixed with blackberry, black cherry, chocolate, and espresso characteristics explode from the glass. In the mouth, there is firm tannin as well as enormous fruit, undeniable southern Rhone typicity, powerful, concentrated, thick flavors, and a finish that lasts for 45+ seconds. This is a stunning effort for Boisrenard."

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.
Grenache, known as Garnacha in Spain, is a red grape that thrives in warm growing regions. Its wines often show strawberry and raspberry, with peppery spice and sometimes earthy notes. Styles range from fragrant, medium-bodied reds to rich, full-bodied wines with generous alcohol and a rounded texture, depending on the vineyard and winemaking. In France's southern Rhône Valley, Grenache is central to wines such as Châteauneuf-du-Pape and Gigondas, often blended with Syrah and Mourvèdre. It also produces distinctive single-variety wines in Spain and Australia. McLaren Vale and the Barossa Valley are particularly associated with old-vine Grenache, offering expressions that combine ripe fruit, spice and layered texture. Grenache's versatility extends beyond dry reds to rosÊ and sweet fortified wines. Vineyard conditions, crop levels and cellar choices shape its character, allowing it to deliver both fresh, approachable fruit and more concentrated, structured expressions. Its combination of generosity and adaptability makes it an important grape in both traditional regional blends and wines that showcase a single vineyard.
A late-ripening red lending structure, dark fruit and gamey, meaty complexity to southern Rhone and Mediterranean blends.
Syrah, also known as Shiraz, is a red grape valued for deep color, dark-fruit flavors and a savory, spicy character. Blackberry and plum are common, often accompanied by violet, black pepper and smoked-meat notes. Its wines range from fragrant, medium-bodied expressions to rich, full-bodied reds, with structure and texture shaped by climate, vineyard site and winemaking. France's northern Rhône Valley is a benchmark for Syrah, with appellations such as Côte-Rôtie, Hermitage and Cornas showcasing its aromatic complexity and structure. In Australia, where it is usually labeled Shiraz, the Barossa Valley and McLaren Vale are known for generous fruit and depth, while cooler regions can produce more restrained, peppery styles. The two names refer to the same grape and do not by themselves guarantee a particular style. Syrah is made both on its own and in blends, including combinations with Grenache and Mourvèdre. Some producers also co-ferment it with a little Viognier. Structured examples can develop additional savory complexity with age, while many wines are crafted for enjoyment in their youth. This combination of fruit, spice and versatility gives Syrah a distinctive identity across a wide range of regions and styles.
