Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre, Oh My: The Wonderful Rhône

In this week’s newsletter we celebrate the darling of southern France, the Rhône Valley. Complex, collectible, and kissed with sunshine, the wines of the Rhône will draw you in again and again. And, thanks to our robust Direct Import program, we can offer them at friendly prices to keep you well stocked. Buyer Keith Mabry takes us through some of the greatest hits of the region, from the serious Syrahs of Northern Rhône to the playful Grenache-based blends to the south.

If you are looking for depth and power, check out our huge selection of Châteauneuf-du-Pape that just landed. From old-school, classic Domaine de Pégau to the forward-thinking organic farming of Château Gigognan, Châteauneuf is an incredibly dynamic category to delve into. For everyday wines that overdeliver, you just can’t beat a Côtes-du-Rhône. Whether it’s Taco Tuesday or dinner with your boss, we have a Rhône wine to fit the bill.

Keith Mabry will be joined by K&L Commonwealth Buyer Thomas Smith on Instagram Live @klwines for an international Syrah showdown. See whose Syrah will reign supreme on Wednesday, September 8 at 1PM.
