5 Director Tastings ... #4: Appreciating the Sweetest Wine - Vouvray Moelleux in depth
Thursday 27 April 2023
5:00-7:00 PM
at the Home of Connie & David Goldfarb
Upper West Side
The Chantepleure Directors invite Members to individually curated tastings in our homes.
The Commandeur will reveal the secret of these extraordinary, long lived sweet wines, perhaps the ultimate expression of Chenin Blanc.
As David Goldfarb recounts stories of his lifelong friendship with the Foreau family, Moelleux from the 1989 and 1990 vintages of Clos Naudin will be compared, accompanied by a cup of homemade heirloom tomato soup (2022 crop), a selection of cheeses, and homemade Syrian pastries. A third wine, served blind, will round out this memorable tasting experience.
Each of the 5 tastings - in small groups - will be unique, however all will hew to a common theme: wines (and nibbles) selected from the host’s personal collection that speak to us as signature expressions of each appellation and that we are most excited to share with our friends.
There are 5 directors and 5 dates to chose from, but attendance is limited - and only available on a first-come, first-served basis. So, don’t dally! If your first choice is “Sold Out,” don’t fret: pick another! If you have previously been in the home of a Director, please sign up for another tasting. For security and privacy, details of the exact locations of the selected Director’s home will be sent by email at a later date.
There is no charge to members for the tasting, but advance registration is essential.
