Book
Description
Join Wine Education Specialist Barbara Drew tonight for a chance to explore four famous communes on Bordeaux’s Right and Left Banks: St Emilion, Pomerol, Graves and Sauternes. Through a fascinating line-up of examples from top châteaux you will have the chance to compare and contrast the different styles (white, dry, red and sweet), looking at vintage variation and the wines’ ability to age.
You will also get a feel for the context in which they are made as Barbara explores how these wines relate to the rest of Bordeaux and how they represent the region in today’s international wine market. The final wine, a mature Sauternes, will ensure that the evening ends on a sweet note.
