Pouring for Kevin Zraly's Advanced Wine Class: Right Bank Bordeaux at Sherry-Lehmann Wines

I was at Sherry-Lehmann Wine & Spirits​ today pouring wines for the advanced class on Red Wines of Bordeaux: Right Bank (St. Émilion & Pomerol) taught by Kevin Zraly​ & Robin Kelley O'Connor 🍷😎

The “banks” are a reference to the river banks that are on either side of the Gironde Estuary (River) of Bordeaux. We tasted the Right Bank wines today which are dominated by the Merlot grape. These wines are usually smoother & more elegant than the Cabernet Sauvignon dominant Left Bank wines. It was a pleasure to taste these! Always a hit!

Sotheby’s (@sothebyswine ) X The Union des Grand Cru de Bordeaux Tasting Tour (@ugcb_net ) showcased the 2017 vintage at @cipriani today. The regions showed so well considering it was a difficult year. The cabernet sauvignon dominated wines from the Left Bank were beauties!! @chateautalbot , @chateau_beausejour& @beychevelle1855 were some of my favorites💥 It was a really great tasting and so fun to see my friends! 😎🍷💕
