I ❤️ Bordeaux

I will be hosting Bordeaux vertical and horizontal dinners this spring in NYC in the private dining room of Gramercy Tavern restaurant.

Monday, March 3: Chateau Latour Vertical Dinner 1982 through 2000

Monday, April 7: 1989 and 1998 Right Bank Dinner

Monday, April 28: Chateau Margaux (1983 through 2000) and Chateau Palmer (1989 through 2000) Vertical Dinner

All details, including the dinner menu for March 3, can be found here: https://illdrinktothatpod.com/blog/its-decanting-season

All the dinners start with a Champagne reception at 6pm, all the dinners are in the private dining room of Gramercy Tavern with a special menu designed by Executive Chef Michael Anthony to complement the wines, and all the dinners are $950 all-inclusive per person, with a discount if you purchase a seat at all three events. Thanks.

The Chateau Margaux/Palmer Dinner on April 28th is now full up. Message me if you would like to be on the waiting list for that dinner. I didn’t see a way to edit the original post, so I am following up with a Reply.

The other two dinners (on March 3 and April 7) still have some open seats. Thanks.

I had a question about it, so just to be clear, I am not making any money off these events. The ticket price covers the cost of the wine and the cost of the private room and service. It is a break even if the events sell out, or I personally lose money if they don’t. It isn’t a money making endeavor.
