Champs des Princes 2005 £5.69
We're thrilled to offer you a genuine buying coup from the southern French town of Orange, home of the Rhone's most famously evocative red, Chateauneuf-du-Pape. Champs des Princes is a rich, spicy mouthfiller crafted by rising star Ralph Garcin, who learnt under Michel Chapoutier - one of the Rhone's (no, the world's) most famous, highly regarded winemakers. With the ''great concentration, purity and structure'' of the Rhone's must-buy 2005 vintage (Wine Spectator), this oak-aged gem is simply superb value. A perfect partner for the first roast lamb of Spring.
