EVENT DETAILS:

Join Master of Wine Clive Coates for an extraordinary dinner at Jean Georges celebrating the great 2005 Vintage in Burgundy. See what the critics are saying about the 2005 vintage! Allen Meadows, Burghound.com: “Let’s cut directly to the chase – 2005 is quite simply the best top to bottom vintage that I have ever seen, period, full stop. Yes, I understand perfectly well that is a bold and heavy-duty statement but there it is in all its unequivocal nakedness. 2005 is a brilliant vintage with virtually nothing to dislike (except perhaps the prices) and here is the key point, it’s also great from top to bottom.” Stephen Tanzer, International Wine Cellar: “2005 is potentially the greatest red burgundy vintage I’ve yet tasted from barrel, and I’ve been sampling these wines in depth every year since the 1987 vintage. Growers who couldn’t make excellent wines in 2005 should find another line of work.” Master of Wine Clive Coates will sort though all the hype and give us his expert opinions on this highly regarded vintage. If you are a collector or lover of great Burgundy, you don't want to miss Clive’s perspective of one of Burgundy's best vintages ever!
