Following the Boston events, The Bordeaux White Wine consortium moves down to Houston for a masterclass and lunch at Caracol Restaurant, where speaker Guy Stout, Master Sommelier, CWE, will lead a masterclass on Bordeaux's late harvest wines. A lunch will follow the masterclass, creating unique food and wine pairings with seafood, wood-grilled oysters, and other Mexican favorites.
The series concludes on the west coast with a masterclass on Monday, May 6th at Esters Wine Shop and Bar (1314 7th Street, Santa Monica, CA 90401) led by speaker Monica Martin. This masterclass will feature a selection of 9 Bordeaux white wines from renowned appellations, such as Cadillac, Sainte Croix du Mont, Bordeaux Blanc, Cérons, Côtes de Bordeaux, Saint Macaire, Côtes de Bordeaux, Crémant de Bordeaux, Bordeaux Moelleux, and Loupiac, and will include food pairings in four courses.
