Reviews
Vintage guide

The 2023 vintage is promising, with the southern Rhône having an easier time of things but the results from both are showing potential. The 2022 vintage is very good for the North and South of the region which both excelled in the hot conditions this year. The 2021 vintage has seen some good results particularly in the North where attractive, aromatic, elegant wines have been made. The wines from the 2020 vintage look to be a little fresher and more approachable in their youth than those of 2019 which is a high-quality vintage with yields on a par with 2018. Another good result along the valley in 2018, though the South had more disease problems to contend with, as mildew affected the thinner-skinned Grenache more than other varieties. Quality was high but the yields were down. An early harvest produced some intense wines in 2017 for both the North and the South of the region, though uneven flowering in both reduced yields considerably. 2016 in both Northern and Southern Rhône has produced excellent results, and the South has it by a whisker this year, the opposite of 2015. 2015 is terrific, particularly for the North’s Syrah, no problems and decent yields too. An ideal growing season, that was even hotter than 2003 in the daytime but with cooler nights and just enough rainfall to prevent problems in the vineyards. Both whites and reds are excellent. 2014 is not an easy vintage to generalise about but whites are super, reds are very pure with lovely aromatics, and, in the South, as in 2013, Syrah and Mourvèdre have done better than Grenache.

Domaine Roger Perrin

Domaine Roger Perrin

Both exciting and forward-thinking, Domaine Roger Perrin consistently makes great value, top quality wines.

In the heart of Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Domaine Roger Perrin, was established in 1972. Taking over his father-in-law’s vineyard, Roger decided to make and bottle the wines himself, building a new cellar and selling the wines under his new domaine label. Since 2013 the estate has been run by Roger’s grandson, Xavier. They farm 42 ha, 15.5 of which are in Châteauneuf-du-Pape, 20.5 Côtes du Rhône and 6 IGP.

Having worked organically since 2010, they are now in conversion and are due to be certified from the 2024 vintage. The modern winery was built in 1998 and is surrounded by very old vines which were planted in 1906. All grapes are hand-harvested except for four of their hectares in IGP. Xavier uses natural yeasts in the winery and is experimenting with making compost to feed the vines and using cover crops in the vineyards. The Châteauneuf vineyards are in fragmented plots around the appellation, and are mainly blended into their grand cuvée, except La Berthaude, which is a single bottling designed for earlier drinking. They cultivate more than 15 different grape varieties, majoring on Grenache, with quantities varying depending on vintage. The different varietals for the red Châteauneufs are fully destemmed, pre-blended and vinified together. The main cuvée spends 12-15 months in oak whilst La Berthaude only spends time in concrete. The white Châteauneuf varieties are vinified separately. They are aged on their lees for roundness, but do not undergo malolactic fermentation in order to avoid losing freshness.
