Two Burgundy Masterclasses for Wine Club by Cristina Mercuri DipWSET
In May, wine educator and entrepreneur Cristina Mercuri DipWSET – who graduated at the top of the renowned Wine & Spirits Education Trust programme and is now listed for the Second Stage of the legendary Master of Wine – organised two high-level Masterclasses devoted to Burgundy.
Both Masterclasses, aimed at an audience of experts and trade professionals, were designed to focus on the white and black grape varieties of Burgundy, with strictly blind tastings.
The stated aim of Head of Education Cristina Mercuri DipWSET was to highlight the unique and specific characteristics of Burgundy's different terroirs, and to explore those differences and distinctive traits starting from the glass.
