Rhone 50 Index
Robert Parker Jr. describes Chateauneuf du Pape as "...wine for hedonists (real wine drinkers) rather than the wine intelligentsia (who prefer writing and talking about wine to actually consuming it)...few wines deliver the pleasure and completeness of a top-notch Chateauneuf du Pape." Wines such as Beaucastel and Pegau are mainstays at auctions around the world.
