Episode 288: Rhône-in' on the River 1: The Headwaters of the Rhône

James Sligh, AKA the Children's Atlas of Wine joins us for our first modern Rhône Episode to kick off and complicate our first French Season in, like, a million years by making us drink two Swiss wines. Sure, we all know about the Rhône Valley, but this damn river is the key to delicious wine all the way to the Mediterranean. This week, we focus on Lake Geneva wines and visit our old crushes, Bugey and Isere, and discuss how the moderating waters makes the best alpine wines possible.
