Vicki Carroll is the president of Hospice du Rhône, an organization of wine producers across the globe that promotes Rhône-varietal wines. It's hard to believe there was a time that people didn't know what syrah or grenache are, but it really wasn't all that long ago. As the administrator for Hospice du Rhône, Vicki has worked to coalesce the efforts of Rhône producers all over the world to share their work with consumers. So if you've ever tasted grenache, syrah, mourvedre or viognier, you have Vicki in part to thank. Here we talk about Hospice du Rhone events, what it's like to be the American wine producers in a room of French wine producers, and the beauty of the South of France.
