The inimitable Pinot Noirs and Chardonnays from Burgundy are the reference points for those grapes and are among the most sought-after in the world these days. For that reason, both the good and the not-so-good are now at record-high prices.
What’s a poor wine lover to do?
Friday, the 13th of June, might be your lucky day.
Popular wine raconteur Bob Zohn, BZ to his many friends, and I will share some stories and thoughts about what to do and not to do when buying and drinking Burgundies, with seven wines we chose as tasty good examples.
Good burgundies deserve excellent cuisine. Catalyst Chef William Kovel loves Burgundy. He has outdone himself in creating a lavish menu that will pair perfectly with the wines. Love to see you there.
