Join us this Saturday, March 2, at 6pm at Society Lounge in Makati as we explore the wines of the South West region paired with French cheeses and other regional specialties for an interactive tasting experience.
Known as “France’s Hidden Corner”, the South West region is tucked away between the Pyrénées Mountains and Spain to the south, Bordeaux to the north, and the Atlantic Ocean on the west. It may be the least known wine region in France but it still offers a great variety of unique wines.
For the 2nd edition of our Grand French Wine and Cheese Tour this year, we will experience 5 different types of wines produced in this region from authentic blend and grape varieties, such as the native Malbec. We will also enjoy a delicious selection of traditional French cheeses and other specialties to be paired with the wines.
