The next meeting of the American Wine Society/ John Marshall Chapter will feature a tasting of high-end Bordeaux wines. Annette Schiller will present 11 wines from classified châteaux.
We will journey with Annette through all major wine regions in the Bordelais: Pessac-Léognan (white and red), Saint-Emilion and Pomerol on the Right Bank, Margaux, Saint-Julien, Pauillac and Saint-Estèphe on the Left Bank as well as Sauternes. A flight of three wines from the same vintage -1998- will give us a great understanding of the different appellations and the aging potential of Bordeaux wines. Two flights -same château, different vintages- will show us the uniqueness of a vintage.
The wines will be accompanied by finger foods. This is not to be missed.
