Château Mont-Redon is one of Châteauneuf-du-Pape’s most storied estates, but their reach extends across the Southern Rhône with a purpose: to make wines that express the region’s best terroirs at every level. The Réserve Côtes du Rhône is sourced from 25 hectares of estate vines planted on stony limestone-clay soils around Orange and Roquemaure, supplemented by fruit from trusted top growers across the appellation — a Réserve in the truest sense, selected for quality above volume.
The 2024 is a blend of 75% Grenache and 25% Syrah, vinified with whole-cluster pressing to preserve freshness and natural aromatics. Grenache brings the warmth, the ripe red fruit, and the silky roundness that defines the Southern Rhône; Syrah sharpens the structure, deepens the color, and adds a peppery lift that carries through the finish. The result is a wine that is both generous and precise — Southern Rhône at its most approachable, without surrendering any of its character.
Deep in color with an expressive, complex nose of ripe cherry, plum, and dark fruit, with a whisper of chocolate and garrigue. The mouth is rich and well-structured, with fine tannins, a lush mid-palate, and a lightly spicy finish. Drink now or over the next 3–5 years.

Jeb Dunnuck writes: The 2022 Côtes Du Rhône Reserve checks in as 80% Grenache and 20% Syrah that's mostly from the limestone soils in Lirac. Blackberries, ripe cherries, peppery herbs, and floral notes all show, and it's medium-bodied, has a balanced, elegant mouthfeel, fine tannins, and a great finish. Readers looking for an impeccably made, high-quality Côtes Du Rhône to drink over the coming 5-6 years or more should grab some. - Jeb Dunnuck
Joe Czerwiński writes: The tank-aged 2022 Cotes du Rhone Reserve Mont Redon is mostly from the Gard, with other components from Valreas and Tulette. Blended just before my summer visit last year, it's 75% Grenache and 25% Syrah, with energetic aromas of black olives, black berries and black cherries. Medium to full-bodied in the mouth, it's round, soft and easy to drink. Enjoy it over the next few years. - Robert Parker Wine Advocate
