Passport to Bordeaux: A Comprehensive Bordeaux Workshop

Saturday, April 18, 2026 | 10:00 AM – 3:00 PM

Join Alessandra Esteves, DipWSET, MW Candidate for a full-day, in-depth exploration dedicated entirely to Bordeaux, one of the world’s most renowned and complex wine regions. This immersive workshop will demystify Bordeaux’s Left and Right Banks, appellations, classification systems, grape varieties, and signature wine styles.

We’ll taste 20 wines that represent the full breadth of Bordeaux — from dry whites to structured reds and luscious sweet wines — while exploring how climate, terroir, and winemaking decisions shape each expression. All materials are provided by Vins de Bordeaux, the Bordeaux Wine Council.

Classifications and Appellations in the Line up:

Crémant de Bordeaux

Bordeaux

Bordeaux Supérieur

Cru Bourgeois

Pauillac

Saint-Estèphe

Saint-Julien

Margaux

Pessac-Léognan

Sauternes

Barsac

Pomerol

Saint-Émilion

We will also have the opportunity to taste a first growth and explore some of the smaller appellations. 

This workshop is ideal for students seeking a structured, serious understanding of Bordeaux, whether for advanced wine studies or professional development. The tasting is analytical and comparative, with a strong focus on the different regions and style differences across Bordeaux.

Cost: $450. Water, wines, all taxes and service included.

Date: Saturday, April 18th, 2026, from 10 am to 3 pm. 

Address: Miami Culinary Institute in Downtown - 415 NE 2nd Ave #8, Miami, FL 33132
