It's not quite the case that all roads lead to Bordeaux, but it is not far from the truth for me. I have been a regular visitor Bordeaux for almost 30 years, and with its history and prominence in the wine world it is a region that is always worth keeping an eye on.

Join me in October for an evening of good food, good company, and great wines from Bordeaux - a classic for a reason.

Reception drinks from 7pm, sit down for dinner 7.30pm

Want more Bordeaux? Here's my 2021 vintage report...

Our wine dinners are relatively intimate evenings which include a three course meal and accompanying wines on a set theme. They are enjoyable and social occasions and suitable for all wine lovers, as well as those who just want a good night out!
