‘Have you ever mistaken a Bordeaux for a Burgundy wine? Not since lunch!’ Harry Waugh

Bordeaux vs. Burgundy
Ronan Sayburn MS vs. Terry Kandylis

The gloves are off as Ronan Sayburn MS and Terry Kandylis fight for their flight in an attempt to answer the most divisive question amongst wine lovers.

Members are invited to partake in what will be an exceptionally rare evening, comparing the wine world’s most celebrated and historic regions through Ronan & Terry’s carefully selected competitors.

These two very different regions and terroirs produce very different expressions, from the elegance and finesse of Burgundy to the polish and boldness of Bordeaux. Our Head of Wine and Head Sommelier could not be more passionate about this divergent issue; the perfect pair to guide Members through this battlefield…

This is one not to be missed.
