Discover the Rich Flavours of the Rhône: Discovery 2 Bottle Rhône Wine Gift Set
Uncover the elegance and depth of the Rhône Valley with our Discovery 2 Bottle Rhône Wine Gift Set, a harmonious selection featuring one of the region’s finest whites and a deeply expressive red. Ideal for anyone passionate about French wines, this duo brings together the refreshing complexity of a Côtes du Rhône Blanc and the bold allure of a Gigondas.
Inside the Gift Set:
- Côtes du Rhône Blanc | Domaine de la Janasse
Crafted by the Sabon family, who’ve been tending Rhône vines for nearly five decades, this Côtes du Rhône Blanc is a masterful blend of Grenache Blanc, Clairette, Bourboulenc, Viognier, and Roussanne. With its peach and apricot aromas layered over hints of warm brioche and a delicate touch of vanilla, it’s a white that balances fresh fruitiness with a soft, creamy texture. Aged on its lees for six months, this wine achieves a depth and complexity that’s rare, making it perfect for sipping or pairing with light dishes. - Gigondas Tradition Le Grand Montmirail | Domaine Brusset
Domaine Brusset’s Gigondas Tradition is a lush expression of Grenache, hand-harvested and naturally fermented. Overflowing with black cherry and currant, with a touch of liquorice to lift its flavours, this red has been aged in a combination of vats and oak barrels, giving it a balanced structure with refined tannins. It’s a wine that brings the heart of the Rhône straight to your glass, ideal with rich, savoury dishes or to enjoy on its own.

Becky Says: “Why These Rhône Wines are Simply Irresistible”
This Discovery Gift Set is a personal favourite for how beautifully it captures the Rhône’s spirit. The Côtes du Rhône Blanc from Domaine de la Janasse is simply delightful – I love its light, peachy aromas that give way to a creamy finish. It’s versatile and elegant, and I think it’s a white that appeals to everyone, whether they’re new to French wines or seasoned aficionados. The Gigondas, on the other hand, is a treat for those who adore a bold red with depth. Domaine Brusset has really outdone themselves, with its layers of dark fruit and a hint of liquorice – it’s a red I could happily enjoy on a cosy evening. Together, these wines embody everything I love about the Rhône Valley.
