Chat with Vinny
Headline act of the southern Rhône is always Châteauneuf-du-Pape and you have an extraordinarily ripe, concentrated release in Cuvée du Vatican (whose wine critic Robert Parker calls a “powerful, rich, in your face style”). Neighbouring Rasteau has established a very fine reputation thanks to dense, herb-scented wines like Domaine Martin. The Ogier family used to sell grapes to legendary Chapoutier and Guigal before making “a bevy of brilliant wines” (Wine Advocate), including Le Temps Est Venu. Finally, there’s Chemin du Belvédère, a mouth-caressing special project red from Hermitage stars, Cave de Tain.
