About the Rhône Varietals
Some of the world's most iconic grape varieties, producing wines celebrated for their richness, balance, and remarkable food-pairing versatility. From bold reds to aromatic whites, Rhône varietals have inspired winemakers across the globe and are now planted in many of the world's finest wine regions. There are 27 officially cultivated grape varieties in the broader Rhône Valley region (with 22 core varietals commonly cited).
About the Rhône Grapes
Red: Syrah dominates the Northern Rhône, offering flavors of blackberry, black pepper, olive, and violet, while the Southern Rhône is famous for Grenache, Mourvèdre, and Cinsault, often blended to create wines of depth, spice, and complexity.
White: The region's signature white grapes include Viognier, known for its lush stone fruit and floral aromas, along with Marsanne and Roussanne, which contribute richness, texture, and notes of honey, citrus, and herbs. Together, these varieties produce some of the world's most expressive and age-worthy white wines.
