In Honor of Hospice du Rhone 2010

I was planning to attend Hospice du Rhone 2010 this weekend in Paso Robles, but sometimes life just gets in the way. In the spirit of the event, which celebrates the great Rhone grapes, as vinified from producers around the world, I am hosting an informal poll of people's favorite Rhone varietal single bottlings. If you are reading through a feed reader, there is a poll embedded in the actual page. Leave your vote and your thoughts and comments here:


What is your favorite Rhone grape, done as a single varietal bottling?
Syrah
Mourvedre
Grenache
Viognier
Roussanne
Marsanne
Other

  1. Sorry you couldn't make it, am here enjoying my first, and am in Rhone Heaven - Rhone red and whites have become my fave this last year, and brought a wealth of discovery for my palette. Good poll, hard choice to pick!
    cheers

  2. Yeah, it was tough (in a jealous kid sort of way) to read all the tweets and reports coming out of Paso this weekend. Next year for sure. I also have just become enamored with Rhones. Thanks William.

  3. I missed it too...less than 3 hours away but just couldn't make it work this year. See you there next year! Or are you going to the Wine Bloggers Conference in Walla Walla in June?

    Poll was a fun idea!
