We are delighted to offer our Members the opportunity to get even further ahead of the investment curve with a unique masterclass which dives deep into the world of fine French wine.
Led by Patrick Schmitt MW, editor-in-chief at The Drinks Business, and Alix Rodarie, wine investment expert and director of international development at iDealwine (one of the world’s leading online auction sites), this Tour de France tasting will introduce you to the country’s rising stars and help you choose bottles that develop in your glass while also increasing in value.
iDealwine, founded in 2000, is a veritable online Wall Street of wine and uses data gathered from over three million auction hammer prices to give wine enthusiasts the best tools to build the wine collection of their dreams.
As Members indulge in a line-up of truly special wines, they will also benefit from Alix and Patrick’s on-the-pulse expertise as they reveal where to find good value in Burgundy, which region’s prices have risen 33% in just one year, how top Rhône is regularly more expensive than renowned Bordeaux, and which wines smashed auction records in 2022 (hint, it’s not DRC)…
