La Soiree des Grands Crus Jan 27 2011 NYC

[Diana Tedesco]

17 Next Generation Bordeaux estate owners representing 23 chateaux will participate in LA SOIREE DES GRANDS CRUS DE BORDEAUX on Thursday, Jan 27th 2011 at 82 Mercer in New York City. The idea is to create a mini-trip to Bordeaux, with the one-to-one contact one has when visiting the chateaux. As part of the evening, there will be a blind tasting for attendees hosted by George Sape and Jean-Luc Le Du. Those who can correctly guess the wines they taste will take home some fabulous bottles for their personal collections-including some magnums and double magnums! (More info about the prize lots for the blind tasting is here: http://www.lasoireedesgrandscrus.com/blind-tasting .)

There will be representation from both the right and left banks, including Basile Tesseron of Château Lafon-Rochet ; Stephen Carrier of Château de Fieuzal; Jean-Jacques Bonnie of Château Malartic Lagravière; Emilie Gervoson of Château Larrivet Haut-Brion ; Jean-Michel LaPorte of Château La Conseillante ; Ronan Laborde of Château Clinet; Mathieu Cuvelier of Château Clos Fourtet ; Laurence Brun of Château Dassault; and Jean-Antoine Nony of Château Grand Mayne.
