April Events

April 04, 2023

Theme	Bordeaux Specialised Tasting
Venue	Matilda 159
Location	159 Domain Rd, South Yarra
Date	Apr 04, 2023
Time	7pm

For our first ‘specialised tasting’ of 2023, we assembled an amazing selection of Bordeaux from our branch cellar, perfectly matched with a bespoke six course meal from the team at Matilda.

The dinner explored the stellar 2009 and 2010 vintages in Bordeaux. At end of the night, we determined that the 2009 vintage was the better vintage for drinking now and the 100-point, 2009 Chateau Pontet-Canet was the best wine of the night. In one of the big upsets on the night, the local Bordeaux style 2004 Yeringberg Red Blend, outscored the highly regarded 2009 Château Malescot St. Exupéry. Yeringberg is owned and the wines made by longstanding Victoria Branch members the de Pury family.

Special mentions went to the two stunning Champagnes which were the perfect way to start the night.
