In today's episode, we continue our adventure into the region of Southern Rhône with Stage two Master of Wine student, Anna Spooner, who has immersed herself in Southern Rhône living.
This episode zeroes in on the intricacies of Côtes du Rhône, Côtes du Rhône Villages, and the Crus—unraveling the mysteries behind these classifications. Our spotlight falls on the renowned Cru, Châteauneuf-du-Pape, as we draw comparisons to Gigondas. Exploring the intriguing Ventoux region, a rising star in the Southern Rhône, becomes a focal point of our discussion.
Anna shares insights into lesser-known areas, guiding us to hidden gems where exceptional value can be discovered and suggesting must-visit destinations.
