Legends of France Rare Wine Dinner

Join us for an unforgettable evening celebrating some of the most legendary and collectible wines of France.
We begin with a flight of exceptional Champagne, featuring the 2002 Jacques Selosse. Renowned for its profound individuality, ageability, and the capacity to beautifully express terroir with great complexity, Selosse has become one of the most coveted names in Champagne.
Next, we experience a rare treat in the legendary 1996 vintage from the house of Salon, located in le Mesnil-sur-Oger, in the Côte des Blancs. The wine is produced from a one-hectare parcel owned by Salon, known as “Salon’s Garden”, along with 19 smaller parcels in Mesnil-sur-Oger, each chosen by Eugène-Aimé Salon at the beginning of the century.
Our Champagne journey continues with two top wines from Krug, the ultra-rare Pinot Noir based Krug Clos d'Ambonnay and the magnificent Krug Blanc de Blancs Clos du Mesnil. These single vineyard cuvees and are considered by many the pinnacle of Champagne.
Our first Bordeaux flight honors the heralded 1961 vintage with four iconic wines: Palmer, Mouton Rothschild, Latour, and Trotanoy. Following this, our right bank flight focuses on the great 1975 Pomerols including the magnificent Lafleur and Pétrus, often hailed as the wines of the vintage.
Our Burgundy selection highlights two exceptional vintages: the delicious 2002 and the structured 1999. Here, you'll savor wines from four of Burgundy’s greatest domains: Dujac, Roumier, Rousseau, and Leroy.
Finally, we have a brilliant selection of Rhone wines including the opulent 1989 Bonneau Reserve des Celestins, the elegant and refined 1985 Chave Hermitage, and the legendary 1978 Guigal Cote Rotie La Mouline.
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to enjoy, in one evening, many of the most legendary French estates in fine wine!
