Description
This evening is all about two classic French regions, which both produce wines that truly shine when matched with food. There can be only one winner however, and you will be the jury. Both offer refreshing dry whites, luscious sweet wines, and reds which span the gamut from rounded and fruity to edgy and earthy. Over each stage of Chef Turner’s four-course menu, the regions will battle it out. Barbara has included some real treats to showcase the best of the regions, like a beautifully-aged second growth claret, and Cheval Blanc’s second wine, so come along and cast your vote.
