Sip your way through the beauty of Champagne, sun-drenched Bordeaux, majestic Loire Valley, dreamy Provence, and other regions, as Toast Of France 2017 Grand Tasting brings together France's top wines from 2:00pm until 5:00pm on Sunday October 8, 2017.
Grab your $59 GA Ticket (a $106 value) for admission to this spectacular affair, and enjoy 3 Hours of Unlimited Tastings of more than 120 Champagnes, wines & spirits - all curated by James Beard-winning sommelier Jean Luc Le Du.
Indulge in an unprecedented variety of appellations and vintages, from Burgundy and Beaujolais to hidden gems like Corsica; ciders to wines from the alpine Alsace; late harvest wines to digestifs.
Of course, in France you wouldn't drink wine without food, so a decadent array of the finest French cheeses and charcuterie will amplify your imbibing pleasure.
Freely flowing wine, an elegant atmosphere and fabulous company, all for a great cause...Now this is wine done right!
Wheeling Forward, a charity serving New York City's disabled community, is joining forces with Jean Luc Le Du, a prominent wine specialist, for an afternoon dedicated to the quintessential French pleasures of wine and cheese.
Many of the all time great French châteaux will be represented, including: Egly-Ouriet, Krug, Robert Plageoles, François Chidaine, Paul Philippe Blanck, and so many more. You will savor rich and nuanced reds, elegant whites, effervescent Champagnes, and even fruit ciders, spirits, and digestifs.
Guiding you through these mesmerizing picks will be Jean Luc Le Du, Yannick Benjamin (Wine Enthusiast's 40 Under 40), and a host of NYC's star sommeliers. You will not just enjoy your sips, but leave with a deeper understanding and appreciation for wine.
All of the proceeds from Toast of France will benefit Wheeling Forward’s programs supporting people with disabilities pursue healthy and fulfilled lives - making this a truly feel-good way to spend your Sunday!
