A Tutored Tasting of Fine Red Burgundy from the Vintages of 1982, 1983, 1985  

 Thursday 10^th May

It is very rare indeed that one has the opportunity to taste wines of this calibre from threeBurgundyvintages from the 1980’s and particularly from the wonderful 1985 vintage. However, once again Jeffrey Benson has been prevailed upon to provide us with a collection of very fine wines. The tasting will be led by Jeffrey who has supplied these wines at historical cost thus enabling the event to be offered at an amazingly low cost.

We have eight truly stunning wines for you tonight which are as follows:

1982  Beaune – Domaine Marc Morey

1982  Nuits St Georges 1er Cru ‘Les Pruliers’ Domaine Henri Gouges

1983  Volnay – Domaine Henri Boillot

1983  Chambolle Musigny – Domaine Henri Felletig

1983  Gevrey Chambertin – Domaine Clos Frantin

1985  Santenay – Domaine Remoissenet

1985  Vosne Romanée – Domaine Chauvenet

1985  Gevrey Chambertin – 1er Cru ‘Clos Prieur’  Domaine René Clerc

By popular request a platter of food will accompany the wines.

This event has been re-arranged from last October due to a mix-up that left us without a venue on the day!  Priority will therefore be given to members and joint members who booked this event in October. If you are booking on behalf of another member please state this on your booking form
