Join Linda Field DipWSET for an exploration of the classic red and lesser-known white wines of the Rhône Valley.
Event details
A region better known for its red wines, there is more to France's Rhône Valley than meets the eye. This tasting will showcase a range of exceptional white wines alongside a selection of classic reds.
During the evening, you'll get the chance to compare some of the region's most exciting styles of wine including complex whites and mature reds, while learning about how climate, soil, viticulture and winemaking contribute to multifaceted styles produced in this region. From north to south, regional to cru, this line-up will demonstrate the true diversity of the Rhône Valley and bring you up-to-date with what's going on in the region.
A selection of French cheeses from La Fromagerie will be included.
