We are thrilled to be able to now launch our Burghound Symposium 2019 programme. This intense, but varied collection of masterclasses and dinner events, combines fun with the chance to gain or to deepen your understanding of Burgundy. We are flying leading Burgundy critic and writer Allen Meadows (and “Mrs. Burghound" too!) to Beijing, Shanghai and Hong Kong to lead events in this programme.
Allen Meadow’s 2019 China programme is exclusive to The Fine Wine Experience.
There is much to learn about this 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.
We have also spent many months meticulously sourcing just the right bottles – the right vineyards, vintages, and domaines with the right provenance – to show top level Burgundy in its diversity and depth.
Hedonism and learning combined!
The programme takes in a range of subjects with a nicely varied selection of cuisines at leading dining venues in three cities. Yet all this is scheduled within a short enough space of time, that both locals and international guests alike can schedule any selection of events, or indeed the entire programme into their diaries.
This year Edouard Parinet of Château du Moulin-à-Vent and Jean-Luc Pépin of Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé who will join us to host their domaine-specific events.
Many of these events are very small in scale, so we recommend you book as early as possible to avoid disappointment. Act now and contact us via events@finewineexperience.com or +852 2803 0753 for booking.
It’s no secret that Burgundy lovers are amongst the world’s most generous and fun people, right?! This generosity can be seen all over the world when Burgundy wine lovers meet to share bottles. The tradition is seen most famously in “La Paulée de Meursault” each November after the Hospices de Beaune wine auction, when Meursault producers and their international guests gather to feast, give thanks for the year’s harvest, and share great Burgundy wines.
The hot ticket last year was a seat at our inaugural Shanghai Gala Dinner, an incredibly fun night.
The format is very simple – if you love Burgundy and love to share, then bring your bottles of fine Burgundy wine, and share with friends, old and new. The Fine Wine Experience team and Allen and Erica Meadows will be there to share with you too.
