After many years of loving the wines of the Northern Rh么ne (and placing many orders for them!) I excitedly boarded a plane to Lyon to make my way to the March茅 aux vins d'Ampuis (one of the largest wine fairs in France, focused entirely on the Rh么ne), at the epicentre of C么te-R么tie and Condrieu.

It does it for me. I鈥檓 seduced by the exotic charm of Viognier, thrilled by its seductive appeal and constantly in awe of its many guises.

Every January the small village of Ampuis in the Northern Rhone plays host to the annual March茅 aux vins, a salon that attracts a global audience of Syrah and Viognier enthusiasts, collectors and buyers.

…for those who like refined Syrah that isn鈥檛 particularly high in alcohol, these are great wines, many of which drink well young on the youthful fruit, but will also age gracefully for ten years or more.

It is fair to say that I am ever so slightly obsessed with the wines of the Rh么ne Valley.
