For anyone who wants to understand the full story that lies within a glass of wine, this book opens up the inner secrets of the geology, the vineyards, the wines, and the growers of the northern Rhône Valley in France. Home to the spicy Syrah, or Shiraz, and the floral Viognier grapes, the northern Rhône Valley is one of France's oldest wine-growing regions; its appellations include Hermitage, Côte-Rôtie, Condrieu, Crozes-Hermitage, St-Joseph, and Château-Grillet. With evocative descriptions and marvelous insights, this accessible, elegant book, the culmination of more than thirty years following the Rhône, is a comprehensive and authoritative survey of the various estates, winemakers, and their wines. Taking a deeper look at the northern Rhône than Livingstone-Learmonth's highly regarded previous volumes on the Rhône Valley, this revised and up-to-date edition covers more producers and includes more in-depth information on the various terroirs, the histories of the wines, and the methods for making the wines. Livingstone-Learmonth concentrates on letting the producers explain their outlook and methods and includes much local color. The Wines of the Northern Rhône includes * Assessments of thousands of wines, with guide dates onwhen to drink and how long to age them * Winemakers' views on what foods best accompany their wines * New vineyard maps for each appellation * Detailed descriptions by growers discussing the effect of different soils on their wines * Precise information on how each domaine makes its wines * New research on the historical links between Hermitage and Bordeaux

Are there wines to rival the greatest first-growths of Bordeaux and the grand crus of Burgundy? Robert Parker’s answer is a resounding Yes—they are to be found among the finest wines of the Rhone Valley. With this new edition of Wines of the Rhone Valley, Robert Parker, the world’s most influential wine critic, provides the key to enjoying the winemaking world’s best-kept secret. The area contains the oldest vineyards in France—indeed the heyday of some of the Rhone Valley wines was 2,000 years ago, around the time of the Roman conquest of France. In recent centuries, these wines have been misunderstood and ignored—and consequently undervalued. All of which means that some of the great wines of the world are available for a fraction of the cost of those from better-known regions. Wines of the Rhone Valley is the ultimate resource for every wine lover, highlighting both the greatest wines of the Rhone Valley and the region’s finest wine values. With his trademark thoroughness, Parker has fully revised and expanded this edition to reflect changes in the region, new personalities, and the latest vintages. In this edition, Parker returns to the region closest to his heart, exploring the sun-drenched Rhone Valley in unprecedented candor and detail.

This new exploration of the wines of the Rhône Valley is an essential reference guide to one of the great classic wine regions of France. It covers all the appellations of the Rhône from timeless Côte-Rôtie and Châteauneuf-du-Pape to insiders' secrets such as the forgotten Brézème and Seyssuel. One of the largest and most ancient wine regions of France, the Rhône remains remarkably accessible and true to itself despite a growth in size and reputation in recent years. Wines of the Rhônefeatures interviews with some of the most respected winemakers and personalities of the region and includes fascinating insights and anecdotes from experts based further afield. Dividing the region into two parts, Walls depicts the sights, sounds and smells of the towns and countryside that make each unique. He then brings readers up-to-date with top-line facts and figures and explores the climate, terrain, main soil types, grape varieties and peculiarities of viticulture and vinification in each part of the region. Although the focus of the book is on the present Walls takes time to look at the main historical events that have shaped each part of the Rhône Valley and its wines. Part 1 covers Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Gigondas, Vacqueyras, Rasteau, Cairanne, Beaumes-de-Venise, Vinsobres, Lirac, Tavel, Brézème and St Julian St. Alban, the Diois and Côtes-du-Rhône Villages and other southern Rhône appellations. Part 2, the northern Rhône, covers Côte-Rôtie, Seyssuel, Condrieu, Château-Grillet, Saint Joseph, Cornas, Saint-Péray, Hermitage and Crozes-Hermitage. Part 3 contains vintage guides for both parts of the region, giving a brief description of the quality and typical wine styles in both red and white from 1978 to the present day and detailing main vintage characteristics and any over- or underperforming appellations as well as providing a guide to food and wine matching. Wines of the Rhôneexamines the contemporary issues being tackled across the region with clarity and authority, in a readable and entertaining format that makes an invaluable addition to the library of any serious wine lover.

In the precursor to this book, The Wines of the Rhone Valley and Provence, first published in 1987, Robert Parker began a campaign to share with the wine consumer the wealth of wines to be found from this under-appreciated region. He believes that the finest wines of the Rhone Valley rival the greatest first-growths of Bordeaux and the grand crus of Burgundy. Although wine has been produced in the Rhone Valley for 2,000 years, and many to today's wines come from the oldest vineyards in France, in recent centuries these wines have been misunderstood, ignored and consequently undervalued. In this revised edition of Wines of the Rhone Valley, updated and greatly expanded to reflect changes in the region, new personalities and the latest vintages, Parker provides the key to enjoying the winemaking world's best-kept secret.

Wines from Côte-Rôtie, Hermitage and Châteauneuf-du-Pape have made the Rhône Valley world famous. This may be a classic wine region, but as Matt Walls reveals in Wines of the Rhône that doesn't mean it is set in its ways. Change here is not only driven by innovations in winemaking and fashions in wine, it is also an essential response to a rapidly shifting climate, which has seen temperatures rise significantly over the last 40 years and extreme weather events become more commonplace. Walls provides a rounded picture of this large and complex region, which varies greatly along the 200-kilometre stretch of river, from Vienne in the north to Provence in the south. Beginning with a vivid journey through the terrain, he explores one of the region's constants, its varied geology, before moving on to the pressing issue of climate. A short tour through the Rhône's winemaking history, from early Greek settlers to the modern industry, is followed by vignettes of all the AOC-permitted grapes and an explanation of the five levels of the region's appellation system. While the region contains some of the world's most recognizable appellations, there are also many that are less well-known. Walls encourages readers to venture beyond the famous crus, making it easy for those eager to explore by detailing the terroir of every appellation and describing and assessing typical wines. Profiles of 200 key producers complete the picture. Boxes throughout the text provide interesting asides on current issues as well as key appellation facts, while an appendix on ageing wines offers a guide to the last 40 vintages. This comprehensive examination of a renowned region is an ideal introduction for those new to the Rhône, while providing fresh insights for long-time admirers of the wines.
