Rhone Rangers SF Bay Area Weekend Celebration of American Rhones – Friday & Saturday March 27-28, 2015
This is an annual Celebration of American Rhone Wines. As far as things to do in the Bay Area, there is a Winemaker Dinner at The Golden Gate Club in the Presidio on Friday night to kick-off the weekend. And on Saturday March 28, you are invited to the Craneway Pavilion & Conference Center, Ford Point in Richmond, for our seminar series and Grand Tasting. Tickets are available now.
From their website: “The Rhone Rangers are a group of roughly 150 wineries dedicated to making wines from the 22 grape varieties originally made famous in France’s Rhone Valley. These varieties range from the better-known Syrah and Viognier to the up-and-coming Mourvèdre, Grenache and Roussanne, to obscure (but delicious) grapes like Counoise and Picpoul. The Rhone Rangers started from a small gathering of American vintners who began meeting informally in the 1980s. As their numbers expanded, the group organized under the name ‘Rhone Rangers.’ The Rhone Rangers is a non-profit organization focused on promoting the enjoyment of Rhone varietal wines produced in the United States.”
