Rhone - French WineSouthern Rhone
Although considered one region, there are great disparities
between the wines of the northern and southern
Rhône. Much of the northern Rhône vineyards is planted
on steep slopes, many of which were periodically
abandoned during prior periods of difficulty as they are naturally very challenging to work. All of the red
wines of the Northern Rhône are based on Syrah,
which produces tannic, deeply colored wines marked
by high acidity
