What to expect
You'll taste sequentially through five bottles, each representing a different appellation or vineyard site. Expect detailed discussion of how soil, slope and microclimate influence the wines' structure and flavour profile. The tasting progresses through lighter, more delicate expressions toward fuller, richer examples. A knowledgeable host will walk you through tasting technique, encouraging you to identify how these grand crus differ despite sharing the same grape variety.
