Given the level of interest expressed in the first iteration of this tasting, we've decided to hold it again, with a few minor changes.

As previously, we will be opening some extraordinary bottles of wine from the diverse terroirs of the Rhone Valley. Stories and myths line the banks of the Rhone: the once-abandoned rugged slopes of Condrieu; the legendary looming hill of Hermitage; the turbulent dual-pope saga of Chateauneuf-du-Pape... At their fascinating best, the wines more than live up to their historic reputations.

We're showing some of our finest bottles from the region, including some iconic names — Chapoutier, Cuilleron, Rostaing, Sorrel, Beaucastel, Clos du Papes (in a mini-vertical) — culminating with the king of all Rhone icons, Jean-Louis Chave Hermitage Rouge (with age, no less). Come along and taste some of the greatest wines France has to offer!
