Exposition: Côte Rôtie & Condrieu, Tutored Cellar Tasting, 20 April

The vertiginous slopes of the Northern Rhône appellations of Côte-Rôtie and Condrieu make for some of the most challenging wine growing conditions in the world, but some of the most rewarding wines due to their fine southerly expositions. Rhône guru Simon Field MW looks forward to sharing his expertise with you this evening on these sensational wines, from established producers such as Chapoutier and Vernay as well as from young up-and-coming stars like Stéphane Ogier. If you wish to learn from a true Rhône expert and enjoy some excellent wines from the Viognier and Syrah grapes, tonight is for you.
