Virtual Tasting Premier Host

Burgundy Without Tears

Thu, December 10, 2020 (7:00 PM - 8:15 PM)

Cost: £10

If you love the white and red wines of Burgundy as much as we do, you will know that the prices you have to pay for decent bottles of the stuff can bring tears to your eyes. In this webinar, we will help you understand how the top domaines of the Côte d'Or - the golden slope that runs south from Dijon to Beaune and Beaune to Santenay - can command such high prices and still sell every bottle they make. We will also tell you how to find the occasional gem from an up-and-coming vigneron(ne) or a less fashionable appellation.

Tutor: Sandy Leckie.

Availability: Good.
