Join us for an intimate evening with Claude de Nicolay, co-owner of the acclaimed Domaine Chandon de Briailles in Savigny-lès-Beaune.
About this Event

Join us for an intimate evening with Claude de Nicolay, the visionary behind Domaine Chandon de Briailles, one of Burgundy’s most admired and quietly brilliant estates. Based in Savigny-lès-Beaune, and co-owned by Claude and her brother François, the domaine has been hailed by Neal Martin as “one of the most overlooked and underrated producers in the Côte d’Or.”

A light touch defines these wines; they are balanced, graceful, and delicate. As William Kelley notes, if they hailed from Vosne-Romanée or Chambolle-Musigny, they’d be “prohibitively expensive.” Instead, they remain Burgundy’s best-kept secret - for now.

Over the course of the evening, you’ll taste six exquisite wines that reflect the domaine’s hallmark elegance and finesse:

2020 Pernand-Vergelesses Premier Cru Blanc – £77.50
2020 Corton Grand Cru Blanc – £156
2022 Savigny-lès-Beaune Aux Fourneaux – £69.00
2022 Savigny-lès-Beaune Premier Cru, Les Lavières – £75
2022 Pernand-Vergelesses Premier Cru, Île des Vergelesses Rouge – £92.50
2018 Corton Grand Cru, Les Bressandes – £110

An extraordinary opportunity to taste through both Premier Cru and Grand Cru expressions, guided personally by Claude - and at just £50 a head.
