We'll be celebrating the end of January's privations (dry or otherwise) the only way we know how — by opening some extraordinary bottles of wine. This time, attention turns to a region dear to the hearts of many a wine enthusiast, a region as diverse as it is unique. 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!

This tasting has now sold out! Click here to request a place on the waitlist, email drink@uncorked.co.uk, or call us at 020 7638 5998.
