Welcome Reception: An Ode to The Amigos
6:00pm – 7:00pm | Onboard Avalon Poetry II | Lyon, France
As a California-based organization, Hospice du Rhône has always embraced a touch of Spanish in our vernacular.
As early as 2002, when we began featuring the wines of Yves Gangloff, Yves Cuilleron, Pierre Gaillard, and François Villard in our seminars—and they journeyed all the way from the Northern Rhône Valley to Paso Robles, California to pour for tasting attendees—we had no choice but to crown them with the title The Amigos. Endearing friends then and now, they remain part of the HdR family to this day.
This Welcome Reception is an ode to them—and to all they’ve done to make the Rhône feel like home to us.
Get ready to toast The Amigos!
