Berrys' Best of Rhône 2008
The 2008 Rhône vintage has yielded excellent medium-term keepers; the wines are similar in style to 2006 which is currently being re-evaluated in an upwards direction. The white wines are fresh and harmonious, both in the North and the South. The red wines wines show with attractive, soft yet ripe fruit and supple tannin structures.
The following wines represent excellent value and would make great additions to any cellar.
