Rhone 2019

La Chapelle

2019 is unquestionably a special year in the Rhone, very successful in both the North and South.

In Chateauneuf du Pape and Gigondas, “2019 appears to be a beautiful, possibly exceptional, vintage”.  After the difficult, wet 2018 vintage, growers were delighted with 2019’s ripe fruit and freshness, and the wines are concentrated and dense without being overdone.
