Jean-Pierre Chevallier (Château de Villeneuve)
I'm delighted that two of my favourite Loire producers – Yannick Amirault (Bourgueil and Saint-Nicolas-de-Bourgueil) and Jean-Pierre Chevallier (Saumur-Champigny and Saumur) – will be presenting their wines at the RSJ on Tuesday 13th April. Both Yannick and Jean-Pierre are meticulous producers and this is shown by the consistent quality of their wines year in year out.

Some of the details of the format of the evening are yet to be decided but it may well be that there will be a walk around tasting followed by dinner with a few wines selected by Yannick and Jean-Pierre to go with the meal. Cost of the event is £45.

Now that is an evening I wish I could attend. We are so near yet so far from London that we might as well be on another planet in terms of realistic travelling. We love those wines. Hope you have a great evening.
ReplyDeleteJean. Sorry you are not able to make it. I'm sure it will indeed be a great evening.
