Chateau de La Tour Grand Cru Burgundy Dinner with owner Francois Labet
Nicholas Le Restaurant
 

Dear members,

The society is privileged to announce that it will host Monsieur Francois Labet, Proprietor of Chateau de la Tour of Clos Vougeot , Burgundy at an exclusive members’ only dinner. During this dinner, Mr Labet will present a vertical of 7 of the estate’s grand cru Clos Vougeot wines from the 2006, 2007 and 2008 vintages and ending with the 1976 vintage. These exquisite wines have been carefully paired with the fine French cuisine of Nicolas Joanny of Nicholas le Restaurant in a 7 course gourmet menu.

The Château de La Tour is the largest, and one of the most important producers in Clos Vougeot. The domaine itself is located right in the vineyard, on the northern side of the Clos Vougeot and just down slope from the fabled, sixteenth century Château de Clos Vougeot (completed on the original site of the twelfth century cellars of the Cistercian monks). The Château de La Tour itself dates from the 1890s, with holdings of six hectares of old vines in Clos Vougeot, from which they make both a Clos Vougeot and a Vieilles Vignes bottling (the latter hailing from vines averaging 95 + years of age). The wines have been described as having an elegant bouquet and flavours of "truffles, liquorice, violet and wild mint" which develop harmoniously with age.

The society is grateful to Hermitage wines for making this event possible.

The Society proudly presents ….
