Bibendum, 2012’s European Wine Merchant of the Year, is hosting its Bordeaux 2010 Tasting at the London Film Museum on Monday 12 November. The annual event, which has become the biggest date in the calendar for Britain’s wine enthusiasts, offers an exclusive opportunity to taste the finest wines from the world’s most celebrated vineyards – for just £40.
Guests at the event, jointly staged by Bibendum and Union des Grand Crus de Bordeaux, will be given the chance to sample more than 150 wines of the 2010 Bordeaux vintage, which is currently dominating the fine wine and investment markets. The event is the UK’s biggest celebration of Bordeaux and is an unmissable opportunity for anyone with an interest in wine – not just the experts – to experience a masterclass in “the king of reds”.
The Union des Grand Crus de Bordeaux is the association that represents the majority of top Bordeaux chateaux. Participants at the Bibendum Bordeaux Tasting will include famousnames such as Leoville Barton, Pichon-Baron, Lynch-Bages, Haut-Bailly, Grand Puy Lacoste, and La Conseillante.
The chateaux owners and their winemakers will be available at the event to discuss the wines with guests and explain exactly what makes Bordeaux the most famous wine region in the world. Many of the wines will be available to purchase on the night.
