Learn 10 French Rhone wines for $20.61

This tasting is conducted by the wine club ‘Let’s Discover Wine”, not by the Art Gallery. Contact with any questions: [letsdiscoverwine@gmail.com](mailto:letsdiscoverwine@gmail.com).

We will sample a fabulous Northern Rhone Syrah; compare a famous Cotes du Rhone Villages (La Neuth) wine with Trader Joe’s version; study the 3 quality levels of Rhone wine; and have a great time. A few of these wines are produced by the most famous (and expensive) Rhone producers (Guigal, Colombo, La Neurth), but we will be sampling their second wines to learn their styles - not paying hundreds of dollars a bottle.

**WHY US THIS SUCH A BARGAIN?** We just share the costs equally. There is no profit, nor labor costs.

EDUCATIONAL: We will taste 10 wines from the Southern Rhone, and learn about each of them.

We’ll be learning about these 10 wines and discussing their taste characteristics.

* Everyone who attends will receive a 30-page booklet on Rhone Wines, concentrating on the wines that we are tasting.
* You also receive a booklet of valuable reprints from CMS (The Court of Master Sommeliers), who are the world’s greatest wine experts.

FOOD. There will be warm bread for palate cleansing and other snacks. You are encouraged to bring dinner for yourself and/or any snacks to share with the group.

REGISTRATION. The cost is $20.61/person, which is the exact cost of the wine, ice, rental fee, etc.

Prepayment is required. Contact [letsdiscoverwine@gmail.com](mailto:letsdiscoverwine@gmail.com)

To save the cost of paying a fee to register online, you can pay me personally. Be sure to contact me to see if there is space at the tasting before sending money.

Because I have to pay over $200/year to have clubs on Meetup, I planned to drop the club this year because of the high cost to me. Then I gave in and paid to continue the club. We would be able to pay the $220, if many people leave $2 when they come to a tasting. But it is not required. Don’t stay away because you don’t carry cash, which is so common today.
