Bordeaux Unveiled: A Journey Through the Classics
Overview
Join us at Cork & Fork for an exclusive wine tasting event showcasing a remarkable collection of Bordeaux’s finest vintages. From the luscious sweetness of Sauternes to the bold complexity of Saint-Émilion and Pessac-Léognan reds, this curated lineup offers an extraordinary journey through some of Bordeaux’s most celebrated estates. Whether you are a seasoned connoisseur or eager to explore new favorites, this tasting promises memorable discoveries and festive delight.
We begin with the exquisite G de Guiraud 2022, a sublime Sauternes that enchants with vibrant citrus and honeyed tropical fruit, perfect for savoring the season’s warmth. Next, experience the refined elegance of Domaine de Chevalier White 2019, a rich and mineral-driven white blend with layered notes of stone fruit and fresh herbs, showcasing Pessac-Léognan’s terroir at its best.
The evening continues with a trio of reds that capture the essence of Bordeaux’s diversity. The silky Seigneurs d’Aiguilhe 2019 offers approachable yet structured Merlot-driven richness from Saint-Émilion, while the Château Lespault Martillac Red 2019 presents a balanced, fruit-forward style representative of Pessac-Léognan’s classic charm. The flagship Esprit de Chevalier Red 2019 elevates the tasting with its complex layers of dark berries, earth, and spice.
Our grand finale features the prestigious Château Canon-la-Gaffelière 2016, a sainted Saint-Émilion Grand Cru Classé renowned for its depth, elegance, and aging potential. This exceptional vintage is a true highlight, perfect for those looking to end the year with distinction.
We will finish the evening by raising a glass of Sauternes as we wish all a wonderful holiday season!.
