Year's Best Rhone
This strikes an appealing balance between red raspberry flavors and barnyard scents, the earthy notes wrapping into the fruit to create a densely textured wine. It's firm and slightly herbal, a pleasingly rustic Châteauneuf.

Excellent, Highly Recommended.

This widely distributed negociant has turned in a solid, medium-weight effort. A hint of almond skin accents cherry fruit on the nose and palate, while the finish turns rather firm and reveals some dry, papery tannins.

Remember when all Châteauneufs were priced like this? Now this is entry-level pricing, yet the wine is very good, delivering a complex, harmonious blend of leather, earth, spice and plum notes. It’s soft enough to drink now and over the next few years.

On the softer side, with lightly mulled plum and cheery flavors woven with notes of toasted spice and fruit-cake. Features a perfumy hint on the open-knit finish. Drink now through 2015. 10,000 cases made.

This delivers a solid, direct beam of cassis, plum skin and black currant fruit notes, with a lacing of anise and raisin through the medium-weight finish. Drink now through 2014. 10,000 cases made. –JM
