Wines of the Languedoc-Roussillon

Wendy Gedney is an expert on the wines of Languedoc-Roussillon, spending long periods in the area every year.  She has recently published a book on the subject.

Tonight she will talk to us about the area and the diverse and interesting wines that are made there.   We will be tasting a carefully chosen selection as listed below, to show what you might expect to find on a visit and to help you select from your supplier.  She is also bringing a selection of cheese and charcuterie from Languedoc to taste with the wines. (She may even have the odd copy of her book available!).
