when: friday 5/7 @ 6pm est
what: though bordeaux has long been a household name, the nuances of each commune are still largely ignored. sure, left bank vs right bank is easy enough, but digging into the specifics of each sub-region is what bordeaux is all about. we will taste two terroir-driven expressions while our special guest helps guide us along the way.
keep in mind (and this may be obvious), bordeaux tends to be on the bigger side as far as structure, so having food/snacks nearby will be especially advantageous. grilled meats and vegetables will certainly serve as a fine pairing, but whatever you choose, lean toward the heartier side of things.
