About this Event

It’s nice to know your Burgundy from your Bordeaux, but it's even better to understand that these two celebrated regions have very different ideas about how fine wine should be made. Most of the wine world has long since aligned itself with one or the other. In this class, we'll recap the history of these fabled regions, discuss the disparate approaches each took to global success, and, of course, taste multiple examples from each category. Finally, we'll ask: "Which side are you on?

Your instructor, Formaggio Kitchen wine buyer, Aidan Wright, will lead you through this journey answering your questions along the way.
