This Benefit table wine pairing is the best of the Southern Rhone. The donor is a Rhone wine devotee who has shared 3 great bottles of 2003 Chateauneuf du Pape to anchor this pairing.  The red side includes the Vieux Donjon (RP 94), the Domaine du Pegau (RP 98), and Wine Spectator's #2 wine of the vintage, the Clos des Papes (RP 97).  These are powerful wines, full of finessed fruit and earth notes and with this age, layers of flavor will roll across the tongue. The lucky table that gets this lot will begin with two bottles of 2010 Condrieu Le Petite Cote, from Yves Cuilleron, which is the classic Rhone white with its own strong structure and body and blend of fruit and earth. Visit the Rhone at the Benefit!
