January Events
This tasting will be based around tasting and discussing three recent vintages for red Bordeaux, by looking at:
- Wines which are accessible – “lunchtime clarets”, i.e. modest red Bordeaux – rather than rock stars; and
- Developments during the last twenty years: Left Bank, Right Bank; relationships abroad; styles of wine; new permitted grapes; sustainability and climate change.
I’ve chosen wines from the current Majestic list to illustrate the following vintages:
- 2016 – Left Bank (e.g. Médoc, Cabernet Sauvignon predominant)
- 2015 – Right Bank (St Émilion or Pomerol)
- 2010 – either.
