The Fine Wine Experience Burghound Symposium is back in 2025! We have an exciting programme of masterclasses, dinners, and our paulée-style gala dinner ready for you. It’s all about deepening our pleasure in and our appreciation for Burgundy, with plenty of fun along the way.
You’ll find all the details below, and tickets are on sale now!
We are flying in leading Burgundy critic and writer Allen Meadows (and 'Mrs. Burghound' too!), as well as a range of great Burgundy producers, in person. There is much to learn about the complex yet rewarding fine wine region of Burgundy. Allen’s expertise, his complete fluency in the subject, and his ability to teach, to lead, and to moderate discussion offer much to both the novice and the experienced aficionado.
And, at the producer-led events, meet the producers, and learn from their first hand experience and their wines. This year we are delighted to welcome Antoine Amiot from Domaine Amiot-Servelle, Bertrand Dugat from Domaine Claude Dugat, Christian Clerget from Domaine Christian Clerget & Antoine Lepetit de la Bigne.
The Fine Wine Experience Burghound Symposium has been running annually since 2015 (with an intermission for the pandemic), and this year we begin with a solid, wide-ranging programme in Hong Kong. We are delighted to finish by returning to Bangkok, where we had such a great time last year. In between – something new for us – Tokyo! We look forward to seeing you at any or all three cities this year.
Tickets are of course limited at all events, and at certain dinners, very limited. We recommend you book as early as possible to avoid disappointment - events@finewineexperience.com or call +852 2803 0753.

RARE WINE DINNER: An in-depth look at Musigny & Chambertin Grand Crus
Lebua at State Tower, Bangkok, (1055 Si Lom Road, Si Lom, Bang Rak, Bangkok 10500, Thailand),
with special guests: Allen & Erica Meadows
At first glance, a dinner that focuses on grand crus from two different Burgundy villages doesn’t seem so obvious a choice for a theme. Indeed, sometimes the wines of Chambolle-Musigny and GevreyChambertin are held up as opposites.
Musigny, and Chambertin are often held up as the two greatest non-monopole red wine grand crus of Burgundy, so we have that as a starting point here. The virtues of both sound remarkably similar – fine fruit, elegance with depth and sumptuousness, and a fine mineral backbone of structure that rewards long cellaring. Are they really so similar, or very obviously different when tasted side by side?
This evening, with a help of Allen Meadows’ expert guidance, we will explore just that, with top producer mature examples from both, in tightly arranged in-vintage comparisons that will allow us to really get to know Musigny, Chambertin (and Chambertin Clos de Bèze) in a way that is rarely experienced.
