1971 Vintage Red Burgundy Tasting - A study of 50 year-olds!

Water Separates the people of the world.  Wine unites them.

That’s why we drink a lot of wine!  All three events we have this week are sold out!  But we usually have a few casualties so if you want to attend any of these events we can add you to the waiting list.

If you have been paying attention to my propaganda over the years you know that Burgundy is one of my favorite wine regions of the world and when we recently acquired these old wines from one of our cellar acquisitions I immediately set these old dogs aside for scientific evaluation.  I have never had a selection of 1971 Burgundy like this in the store and when we received this collection the first thing I did was set some of the top wines aside for this tasting with 1971 being my all-time favorite old vintage from Burgundy- I knew these wines were destined for one of our “Once in a Lifetime” Vintage Burgundy events to celebrate everyone’s 50th birthday this year.

We even have a few of these wines available for sale and right now we have an incredible collection of Burgundies from the 1970’s in the store right now, so I have included them on this offering.
