Chateau de Vaudieu is a well-established winery founded in the 18th century and has been run by the Brechet family for 50 years. This is an important estate with 70 hectares of vineyards in the appellation, situated just to the south of Chateau Rayas, most of which are over 65 years old.

This wine is the so-called 'Grand Vin' made from their best parcels and oldest vines. This is proper Chateauneuf, exactly what we have been looking for. The 2019 is perfectly drinkable right now, but with a few years it will continue to blossom.

The Region

Rhone Valley

Rhone Valley

The Rhône Valley wine region follows the Rhône river from just south of Lyon in the North to its delta on the Mediterranean coast. The region can roughly be divided into two parts: The Northern Rhone, where Syrah dominates the reds, and the Southern Rhone, where the reds are almost always blends, but with Grenache Noir the dominant variety.

The region is also know for its whites, with the tiny AOC of Condrieu being the spiritual home of Viognier, and the Marsanne / Roussanne wines of Hermitage, St Joseph and others.
