INTRODUCTION TO SOUTHERN RHÔNE AND LANGUEDOC REDS

Thu 3 February 22,  7:15 pm - 11:00 pm

With John Hoskins MW, Proprietor of The Old Bridge.

Thursday 3rd February 2022, 7.15pm.
£49.50 per person.

“Introduction” to wine tastings are themed around grape varieties or regions. The format is informal, suitable for anyone with an interest in wine who might want to get a bit more understanding of the subject. They are tutored by John Hoskins, Master of Wine and owner of the hotel. We taste for about an hour and a half (8+ wines from the everyday to the very best). Then there’s an informal supper – 2 courses, a couple of glasses of wine, coffee. The chefs decide on the menu on the day, so you just need to let us know any dietary issues in advance.

While northern Rhône reds can be lively and vigorous, the south is all about warmth and richness – most famously in Châteauneuf. But nowadays some of the best wines from the Languedoc can match them for both hedonism and complexity. We will navigate a mixture of famous names and lesser-known appellations.

To book ring the wine shop 01480 458410.
