The Grand French Wine and Cheese Tour
Join us this Saturday, March 5, at 5pm at Society Lounge in Makati as we explore the wines, cheeses and other specialties of the Loire Valley region in France for a unique tasting experience.
The Loire Valley is located in the middle stretch of one of the longest rivers in Europe, the Loire River, in central France, and the region offers outstanding wines (sparkling, white, rosé, red and sweet wines), delightful cheeses and other gastronomic specialties.
For this 1st edition of our Grand French Wine and Cheese Tour, we will explore this 280km long region and the great diversity of its wines with iconic grape varieties such as Sauvignon Blanc, Chenin Blanc and Cabernet Franc. We will also enjoy 3 traditional cheeses and other gourmet preparations concocted by Chef Patrice of Society Lounge for a memorable tasting.
