rendez-vous du jeudi

apologies are in order for the lack of updates recently. it's been an intense few weeks, jam packed full of media attention for the Wine Gallery, tastings, interviews etc.

last Thursday also saw the first in our series of "rendez-vous du jeudi". once a month, our most loyal supporters are invited to a special evening tasting with a winemaker/owner of a prestigious chateau. places are strictly limited to preserve the intimacy of the evening and give our guests the rare opportunity to get to know the winemakers, ask questions and taste their magical wines.

Fabien Teitgen, directeur technique at Chateau Smith Haut Lafitte was the first to step into the limelight and treated us to a delicious tasting, including the unquestionnable hightlight of the evening - the Smith Haut Lafitte Rouge 2000 that had been decanted for two hours prior to serving (http://www.smith-haut-lafitte.com/docs/fr/fiches/Smith-Haut-Lafitte_Fiche-Technique-Rouge-2000.pdf)

Fabien was a great hit - so much so, that the evening ended much later than planned !
