A captivating wine region that effortlessly weaves together a stunning blend of nature, history, and vinicultural prowess. Traveling along the Rhône River, this region bears a range of wines that show off the area's terroir and its winemaking heritage that dates back centuries, resulting in every bottle telling a story of soil, climate, and the passion that winemakers pour into their craft.

The Rhône is usually divided into two sub-regions with distinct vinicultural traditions, the Northern Rhône and the Southern Rhône. The northern sub-region produces red wines from the Syrah grape, sometimes blended with up to 20% of white wine grapes and white wines from Marsanne, Roussanne, and Viognier grapes. The southern sub-region produces an array of red, white, and rosé wines, and often blends of several grapes such as Châteauneuf-du-Pape.

The entire Rhône region produces around 4 million hl of wine each year, of which over half is classified under the Côte du Rhône and Côte du Rhône-Villages appellations. The prestigious Northern Rhône appellations account for less than 5% of the total Rhône wine production. Join us as we sip, savor, and travel through a wine lover’s paradise.

Instructor Bio: Victoria Tuzet

Originally from Montréal, Canada, Victoria recently relocated to the Upper Valley after several years in Southern California. A passionate traveler with a deep curiosity for wine, she plans her adventures around the world’s most celebrated wine regions whenever possible. Her wine travels have taken her through Napa and Sonoma in California; Bordeaux, the Loire Valley, Champagne, Provence, and Alsace in France; Valpolicella and the tiny towns of Tuscany in Italy; Spain’s Rioja and Cava regions; Portugal’s Douro and Porto; and even the volcanic vineyards of the Canary Islands.

Victoria spent four months living in Spain, immersing herself in the local wine culture, and later worked the 2022 harvest in France’s Rhône Valley, assisting with winemaking at an organic and biodynamic estate. She holds her WSET Level 3 Award in Wine and is currently completing the WSET Diploma, with expected graduation in 2026. When she’s not talking terroir or vintages, you’ll likely find her watching documentaries, attempting to bake, or crafting between tastings.
