Château Rayas

Château des Tours

Réserve Côtes du Rhône Red Rhone Blend 2013

An outstanding Cotes-du-Rhone from the guys who make Rayas. Rich, spicy aromatics lead a voluptuous and sexy, earthy core of mushroom and strawberry fruit. Not a hard edge anywhere. Superb. Thanks, Mark! — 8 years ago

Chateau de Fonsalette

Réservé Côtes du Rhône Red Rhône Blend 2007

The rayas fingerprint is very strong, but so is the vintage. The fruit is definitely sweeter and riper than in other vintages, but still fresh and very well made wine. — 9 years ago

Château de la Font du Loup

Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhone Blend 2010

This is made right next to chateau rayas and is about as close to that as you can get at a reasonable price. Benoit said the owner is a wife swapping ex-priest. Also the label is terrible, which likely makes the price lower. — 10 years ago

Château de Beaucastel

Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhône Blend 1986

From 375. Huge amount of sediment that most of the usual dark pigmentation of the wine is gone ... looks like Rayas. The barnyard funk is there but blows off in a few minutes. Very good depth with spice and hints of garrique and fruit. Wow 30 year old half bottle! — 9 years ago

This is the most insane non-Rayas CdP made. From a vineyard contiguous w Rayas. Bio-d. Low sulfur. Native yeast. Whole cluster. No new oak. And as pure now as a wine a few years older. This wine is the shit. — 11 years ago

Saumur Chenin Blanc 2010

Aromatically awesome. Super Chenin. I love this. Kept coming back throughout the night and this wine held its own between sips of Foillard, Rayas, Vogue. Very strong performance for a value wine. Will enjoy drinking one annually until they run out. — 9 years ago

An outstanding full bodied & voluptuous red produced by the King of Rhone Chateau Rayas. Make the effort & find this wine! — 12 years ago

Chateau de Fonsalette

Réservé Côtes du Rhône Syrah 1999

An abundance of leather, savory smoked meat and stewed prune. Dried flowers, wet clay and chipotle chocolate smoothly fade into that classically long Rayas finish. — 13 years ago
