Join us on October 31 to celebrate a legendary Bordeaux winery - Château Brane-Cantenac. Brane's vision, driven by Henri Lurton, is to act with conviction and without compromise. Nothing is for show; nothing is a distraction. Everything serves a single objective: to make the greatest wine possible from one of Bordeaux's finest terroirs.
You will taste the newly introduced Brane-Cantenac Blanc, followed by recent vintages of the estate's second and third wines, Baron de Brane and Margaux de Brane. We will then pour two lauded vintages of the Château Brane-Cantenac grand vin, 2020 and 2015. A tasting of J.M. Labruyère champagne will begin and conclude the evening.
An all-star team will be on hand for this event, including visiting representatives from the château. Chef Evan Dannells of Cadre will be preparing a five-course menu to pair with these exquisite wines. Jay Hutchinson, former sommelier of Michelin-starred Ai Fiori in New York and now Director of Business Operations at Four Winds Farm, will oversee wine service.
We invite you to the farm on Halloween to learn about the past, present, and future of Bordeaux. In recent years, this historic region has started to shed some of its outdated traditions. Though it remains focused on producing wines of the highest quality, there is now more openness (to visitors and to new ideas) and willingness to embrace principles of sustainability. Château Brane-Cantenac is transitioning to organic viticulture and making wines that are better than ever.
*Guests will be enjoying a set menu for the evening. We are unfortunately unable to accommodate any allergy restrictions/dietary preferences.
