Café Boulud: Burgundy & Beyond Wine Tasting Dinner

Sommelier Blue Pilkington hosts an evening celebrating Red Burgundy, the world’s finest expression of the Pinot noir grape. He’ll also share a taste of the grape’s success as it travels to North America and New Zealand, where it’s vinified by winemakers inspired by great Burgundian tradition. The four course dinner will be paired with seven wines including highlights from the exquisite 2007 vintage:
