The Story Behind the Bottle

The rich and intensely spiced Cuvée du Vatican Réserve de l’Abbé Côtes du Rhône comes from one of the Rhône Valley’s star winemakers, Jean-Marc Diffonty.

With his wines acclaimed by critics worldwide, Diffonty is a household name in the southern Rhône. Fine wine expert and Rhône fan Robert Parker described the Diffonty Cuvée du Vatican Châteauneuf wines as “full-bodied, powerful, rich and oozing unmistakable Provençal character”.

This delicious Réserve Côtes du Rhône has all the power and character Jean-Marc’s wines are known for. Comprising mostly Grenache, the Réserve de l’Abbé is made by Jean-Marc with as much care and attention as he affords his top reds.

Using grapes from just outside the Châteauneuf boundary, it’s sumptuous and velvety, with warming red berry and wild herb complexity. Best decanted early, the wine is ideal served with a hearty casserole.
