We are thrilled to be able to now launch The Fine Wine Experience Burghound Symposium 2026 programme. This year join us with Allen Meadows (and Mrs Burghound too!), as we tour Shanghai, Tokyo, and Bangkok!
It’s time to put some annual leave in your calendar, or schedule some must-attend meetings in these three cities that just happen to coincide with these dinner events. What a happy coincidence!
Pick one city, pick two, or come join us as we tour all three!
We have some great rare wines dinners for 2026 – 2001: 25 Years On in Shanghai, Richebourg & Romanée-St-Vivant in depth in Tokyo, and Échezeaux Icons in Bangkok. We also have three great educational dinners – 2016 Vosne-Romanée1er Crus in Shanghai, 2017 Chambolle-Musigny 1er Crus in Tokyo, and Finding Your White Burgundy 1er Cru Style in Bangkok. There’s something here for every Burgundy novice and aficionado alike.
All events are ticketed here in Hong Kong (local payment), and in HK dollars, so it’s easy to join. Get your tickets now at - events@finewineexperience.com or call +852 2803 0753. There are also Early Bird ticket special prices that are valid until 13th February 2026 (subject to not being sold out prior – these small-scale events often sell out quickly). So, check your diary, make your travel excuses, and come have fun with us in Shanghai, Bangkok, and Tokyo!

2016 Vosne-Romanée – The 1er Crus Dinner
Upper House Shanghai, No.366 Shi Men Yi Road, Jing'an District, Shanghai
Get direction
This evening’s dinner with Allen Meadows focuses on the 1er Cru vineyards of Vosne-Romanée. Driving up the D974, and this smart but quiet village comes into view, its gentley sloping vineyards and small cluster of limestone buildings look unassuming. But this commune is home to the most coveted, and many of the most alluring Burgundy reds of all, it’s grand crus – like La Romanée-Conti, La Romanée, Richebourg and Romanée-St-Vivant, to name a few, are amongst the regions true icons, wines of dreams. But Vosne is home to more than this, as Allen made clear in his 2010 book devoted entirely to this village and its wines – The Pearl of the Côte: The Great Wines of Vosne-Romanée. To really understand Vosne, we must understand its 1er Cru vineyards. They provide the tapestry of terroirs through which we can understand the expression of Vosne as a whole. We have further narrowed down this patchwork of identities by focusing on one single highly regarded vintage, now with some maturity in bottle – 2016.
Over dinner at Upper House, guided by the man who wrote the book on Vosne-Romanée, we will gain intimate portraits on these twelve 1er Cru terroirs. A masterclass dinner to remember.
