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. The WinePrices Rhone 50 Index includes components that represent the most actively traded Rhone wines in global auctions as compiled by WinePrices.com.
