Wine Club, Session 1 - Cool Climate
Join our French Wine Club
Take a journey through France’s most renowned wine regions—all while speaking French! We have three exclusive events for our French-Speaking Wine Club in Exeter, perfect for wine enthusiasts eager to explore the diversity of French regions. This is beginner- to intermediate-level French friendly. Each event offers a rare opportunity to taste and learn about six carefully selected wines, including sparkling, white, rosé, red, and dessert wines. Our Wine Club will be hosted at Radford Community Kitchen at the Exeter Community Centre, featuring a delicious selection of French canapés paired with the wines.
We’re honored to have Rebecca Mitchell, a certified sommelier and WSET (Wine & Spirit Education Trust) course educator with over 27 years of experience, leading these tastings. Rebecca’s engaging and approachable style, combined with her deep expertise, ensures an unforgettable experience for all.
Joining her are Ellen McNabb and Chris Wilson, who will assist and host French wine quizzes with surprise rewards!
Each session will highlight a different region of France. The first session will explore the crisp, refreshing wines from France’s cooler regions like Alsace, Champagne, and the Loire Valley. These wines are known for their vibrant acidity and bright fruit flavors. Discover elegant Rieslings, sparkling Champagnes, and zesty Sauvignon Blancs—perfect for lovers of fresh, light wines with a touch of sophistication.
