Focus on Red

NYC Wine Company @ 167 W 23rd St, New York, NY

Even though white wines can be as "serious" and as complex as their counterparts in rouge, reds beckon to us in ways whites often do not, and I, too, fall prey as much as anyone to this call. If you welcome the bite of winter solely to find guilt-free solace in a rich, peppery Shiraz, or if you can find succor in a glass of red at day's end, never mind the season nor the forecast, this class is a must. During this one evening seminar we will explore...

2002 Red Burgundy Blind Tasting - 15 years on

The Wine Workshop

2002 was a miracle vintage that is sweet, fresh and very Pinot Noir, according to Allen Meadows, aka the Burghound. He goes on to say that is was, “an excellent vintage from top to bottom, something that rarely occurs and if ever there was a vintage in which to buy the regional and commune level wines, 2002 is it the best wines absolutely belong in your cellars.” Low rainfall and intentionally restricted yields resulted in a smaller vintage....

2005 Bordeaux Dinner at the Parlor Steakhouse

The Wine Workshop

Please join us for a stellar 10th anniversary blind showdown of one of Bordeaux’s finest modern vintages. 2005 enjoyed perfect weather conditions throughout the year which produced rich, balanced, long-aging wines. As Robert Parker sums up, “Tasting the 2005 red wines from the bottle, many of them three or four times, confirmed that this is the greatest vintage produced during my 30-year career. Some of my earlier reservations concerning the...

1990 All Around Europe Rare Wine Dinner at Marea

The Wine Workshop

1990 is widely considered one of the best and most consistent vintages in nearly every major wine region on the globe. Bordeaux experienced one of its greatest vintages of the 20th century and Burgundy is a classic vin-de-garde. Rhone is a triumph for both the northern and southern parts of the region and Piedmont enjoyed its best vintage since 1945. It seemed like every region did marvelously well in 1990. The wines are flavorful and aromatic with...

Producer Spotlight: Pierre Duroche Dinner

The Wine Workshop

The Duroché family has been making wine in Gevrey-Chambertin since 1933, but it wasn’t until Pierre Duroché took the helm in 2005 that the Domaine reached a whole new level of excellence. Pierre is not out to impress anyone with big, flashy, and oaky wines but rather shows off his expertise through wines with finesse, balance, and terror distinction. The Duroché holdings include 8.25 ha of Gevrey-Chambertin, including Bourgogne Rouge and Blanc,...

1945 Historic 70 Year Anniversary Dinner

The Wine Workshop

No vintage in the post-World War era has a reputation as great as 1945. Its legendary status is well deserved based solely on the quality of the wines, but the fact that it is the “victory” vintage following World War II only adds to its luster. 1945 was a remarkably good vintage for virtually every wine region in the world, but it was especially great for Claret. Interestingly, the harvest in Bordeaux got underway on September 13th, the same...

Margaux: Focus on Terroir

The Wine Workshop

Margaux is famous for producing fragrant wines with sweet fruit flavors, silky tannins, and considerable delicacy. There is an elegance to the wines of Margaux but the wines are by no means meager. Some of the greatest wines of Bordeaux come from this appellation. Margaux is a widespread district which can be quite variable in style but, on the whole, the benchmark examples display a classic cedar bouquet with balanced elegance and harmony. ...

1996 Bordeaux Blind Tasting with Bob Cunningham

The Wine Workshop

1996 was a stellar vintage for Cabernet Sauvignon in Bordeaux. Temperatures in June and July were above average, however the beginning of August was unusually cool which retained acidity. Then three weeks of warm, dry sunny weather came in to fully ripen the grapes. The result was exceptionally pure Cabernet Sauvignon. The 1996’s have fantastic length, depth of flavor and great finesse. These are classic left bank wines: muscular, and densely packed...

Château Haut Brion Dinner at Bouley

The Wine Workshop

Haut-Brion is considered the most elegant and aromatically complex of the First Growth as well as the only Graves property included in the 1855 classification. It has a perfumed minerality that is really quite amazing. Connoisseurs of fine wine consider it one of the greatest and most intriguing wines in the world. The Dillon family purchased Haut Brion in 1935, making it the only First Growth owned by an American family. Jean-Philippe Delmas, son...

Chave Hermitage Tasting with Bob Cunningham

The Wine Workshop

Few winemakers are so in tune with their region that the wines they produce are considered to be the perfect expression of terroir, and Gerard Chave is one of them. Gerard’s son Jean-Louis, now head wine maker, has assumed the mantle of one of the world's best and most famous wines.  His father left him some big shoes to fill, but Jean-Louis has worn them well, arguably elevating the consistency and greatness of everything that Chave represents....

Island Wines

NYC Wine Company @ 167 W 23rd St, New York, NY

When you think of the islands, you likely think of lobster for breakfast, Ban de Soleil and a nap for lunch, and Pina Coladas at midnight. Islands, however, are also home to many of the world's most incredible, distinct, and enjoyable wines.  It's all about geography, since islands are surrounded by water, they invariably have cool night time temperatures, which helps retain acidity, while if the latitude is right, they also receive plenty...

Domaine Michel Lafarge Retrospective Dinner

Lafarge makes wonderfully pure and concentrated wines that are the essence of great Volnay. Burgundy connoisseurs love these wines for their transparency, terroir distinction, and soul. Michel Lafarge’s son, Frédéric, is now in charge. Even though they converted to biodynamics in 2000, nothing much has changed in their old-fashioned cellar in Volnay. Among the cobwebs and seasoned old oak barrels, you will find benchmark examples of some of...

Wines of Croatia & Hungary

NYC Wine Company @ 330 W 11th St, New York, NY

Important Notice - Understandably, some people may see Hungary and Croatia and assume the class will feature esoteric wines that may be "interesting", yet unlikely to be purchased by you anytime soon. These wines, however, represent some of the most dynamic, interesting, and delicious wines available today. If you like Sancerre, lively Rieslings, or crisps Albarinos, you'll fall for the whites of both countries. if you like classic Rioja, Barolo,...

On Wednesday, December 19, we will open 10 bottles of very special wine. A trio of elegant sparkling wines, three full-blooded reds, and three dessert wines. As for the tenth bottle, TBD, but something as special as the other nine.  The reds will be winter wines,...

Raveneau

The Wine Workshop

François Raveneau was one of the greatest winemakers of France who nearly single handedly help preserve the great terroirs of Chablis during some very difficult years. In 1984 François retired, leaving the estate and his knowledge in the care of his two sons, Jean and Bernard. The domaine consists 7.5 hectares, which include three Grand Crus: Blanchot, les Clos and Valmur; and four Premiers Crus: Montée de Tonnerres, les Vaillons, Butteaux and...
