The Big Eight Bordeaux Tasting from 1990 vintage

Burgundy makes you think of silly things, Bordeaux makes you talk of them and Champagne makes you do them.
- Jean-Anthelme Brillat-Savarin

We are coming down to the last few tastings of the year and you know that we like to finish with a bang here at Wine Watch!  This is the last tasting before our Big Ballers New Years Eve Party and we try to host at least one big 8 Bordeaux tasting every year so when I acquired 5 of the 8 wines that were necessary from the legendary 1990 vintage for this tasting I immediately went in search and found the others, of course we have a few ringers to throw on the table as you know you always get extra at a Wine Watch event especially when it’s the last event before the New Year!

For those of you still sheltering in place I have included all the wines from these great Chateau that we have in the store so you can host your own event or just drink a really special bottle of wine on New Year’s Eve or any other special occasion this holiday season.

This is a sit down pre-poured tasting and we are limited to only 12 tasters.  Chef Toni Lampasone will be making a special menu to accompany the tasting wines.  The fee for this tasting is $1500+ tax, for reservations call 954-523-9463 or e-mail andy@winewatch.com.
