Bordeaux Goes BiCoastal
There will be two Bordeaux Under One Roof events in the United States this year. The fourth annual New York City event is November 13, 2014. The new Bordeaux Under One Roof event will be in Los Angeles November 18, 2014.
Both events, arranged by the Bordeaux Wine Council, will offer trade and consumer sessions. Attendees will be able to taste a large and diverse selection of Bordeaux wines as well as meet with local importers and winemakers.
The trade session of the New York City event will offer a Bordeaux Master Class with Patrick Cappiello. Shelby Ledgerwood, CWE, Wine Educator and accredited Bordeaux Wine Tutor will lead the Los Angeles Master Class.
During the consumer tasting, the wines will be organized by the geography of the Bordeaux Appellations (i.e. left bank vs. right bank) for easy navigation. Proceeds from all consumer ticket sales in New York will directly benefit City Harvest, the food rescue organization dedicated to helping feed more than 1.4 million New Yorkers facing hunger. L.A. proceeds will go to the California Art Club, established in 1909, whose mission is to promote and support contemporary-traditional fine art. During the LA consumer portion, Signature Artists of the California Art Club will demonstrate their expertise in oil painting as guests enjoy their wine.
Bordeaux Under One Roof NY will be held at Industria Superstudios, 775 Washington Street, New York, New York. Te L.A. edition will be held at The W Hollywood Hotel, 6250 Hollywood Boulevard, Hollywood, California. The trade sessions will run from noon to 4 p.m., and the consumer session will run from 7 to 10 p.m. at both locations.
