Wine Tasting at Chateauneuf du Pape

Here are photos of our latest trip to Chateauneuf in the Rhone Valley of France. Chateauneuf is famous mostly for its reds. Wine producers have a possiblility of 13 different grape varieties when creating a wine. All have a base of Grenache and it's this grape that gives these wines their powerful leathery taste and smell as well as spicy. These wines go best in the winter with meat or a strong cheese.
