Region guideRhône Valley

A little background helps this bottle make sense.

Getting to know Rhône Valley.

The Rhône links northern hillside vineyards with a much larger southern landscape. A Rhône Valley reference gives regional context, but the exact appellation still matters for grapes, place and production rules.

The place

What the name means

The Rhône Valley is a broad French wine region containing many protected appellations. Côtes du Rhône, Côtes du Rhône Villages and named crus have different boundaries and rules.

Weather

How grapes grow here

Northern and southern parts of the valley do not share one climate. The south has stronger Mediterranean and Mistral influence, while the long river corridor and surrounding landforms create local differences throughout the region.

Soil

What lies under the vines

Granite, clay, limestone, sand, stones and other river and slope deposits occur across the valley. The northern and southern vineyards use these soil groups in different combinations.

How large the region is

Geographic reach
The Rhône Valley wine region extends across six French departments between Vienne and Avignon.
Appellation structure
The regional authority lists Côtes du Rhône, Côtes du Rhône Villages, Rhône crus and other valley AOCs separately.

Places within the region

Northern Rhône
Steep slopes and terraces are common, with granite, rock and clay among the principal soil settings.
Southern Rhône
Broader plains and hills include clay, limestone, sand and stony ground under stronger Mediterranean influence.
