Northern Rhone Red Blend
Northern Rhone Red Blend
Syrah is the only red grape variety permitted in red AOC wines from the Northern Rhone. Uniquely, Syrah is often blended with white grape varieties: Viognier, Marsanne and Rousanne, which add soft, round characters to the final wine. Syrah will always be the dominant partner in any Northern Rhone red, with typically no more than 15% made up of permitted white wine.
