AOC Côtes du Rhône wines, on track at the 28th Alpe d'Huez International Comedy Film Festival

In 2025, and for the second year running, AOC Côtes du Rhône wines will join the great team of Alpe d’Huez Festival partners! Conviviality, culture, quality, creativity, accessibility... these are the shared values ​​that unite the festival and the wine appellation.

As partners of the Avignon Festival, the Lyon Street Food Festival and Jazz à Vienne, the winemakers and wineries of the Côtes du Rhône appellation are keen to meet consumers where they live, have fun and cultivate themselves...

Come (re)discover the Wines of the AOC Côtes du Rhône and AOC Côtes du Rhône Villages at the Côtes du Rhône Wine Bar in the partners' chalets or during a Côtes du Rhône & Villages tasting workshop. 

The Côtes du Rhône & Côtes du Rhône Villages Wine Bar will open its doors to the public from Tuesday January 14 to Saturday January 18, 2025. It wil take place on the esplanade of the Palais des Sports d’Huez  before each official screening (lunch from 12 p.m. to 2 p.m. and evening from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m.)

Every evening, our consultant sommelier, Nicolas Ong, will introduce the public to a new selection of Côtes du Rhône and Côtes du Rhône Villages in a friendly and festive atmosphere.

Paid tasting (€4 per glass) - White / Rosé / Red
 

Join us for a public tasting workshop focused on Côtes du Rhône & Côtes du Rhône Villages wines.

A great opportunity to discover and refresh your knowledge of the Côtes du Rhône appellations thanks to tastings of 4 wines, hosted by our advisory sommelier, Géraldine Clément.

► From Tuesday January 14 to Saturday January 18 from 12 p.m. to 1 p.m.
Tasting workshop: “Secrets of a bottle: advice from the sommelier”
 

Our consulting sommelier will guide you through the art of choosing, storing and tasting wine. Learn to understand the mysteries of the label, discover the tips for perfect conservation and master the art of opening a bottle. After this workshop, a bottle of wine will hold no secrets for you.
 

► From Tuesday January 14 to Saturday January 18 from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m.
Tasting workshop: “Côtes du Rhône: red wines in all seasons”
 

Chilling red wines before consumption... a good way to taste the AOC Côtes du Rhône and Côtes du Rhône Villages to maximize the pleasure of tasting. Our sommeliers will encourage you to challenge the traditional codes of consumption by refreshing the wines before tasting to bring out the fruity side, without denaturing the wine. A great occasion to taste our red wines and enjoy their delicate aromas in all seasons.
