After the April tasting focused on white wines from Burgundy, it’s finally time to dive deep into the reds!

Tell Me Wine #5 is all about Bourgogne Rouge — a special evening exploring one of the world’s most iconic wine regions through at least 12 bottles from two exceptional domaines that are quietly shaking up the Côte d’Or.

This is the first-ever Tell Me Wine dedicated exclusively to red Burgundy, with a curated selection of wines that showcase elegance, terroir, and potential — but without the Grand Cru price tags.

### 🍇 What are we drinking?

We'll explore the hidden gems of Bourgogne through two rising domaines:

• Domaine Le Guellec Ducouet – based in Brochon (next to Gevrey-Chambertin), this small, low-intervention producer works old family plots in some of the most promising terroirs of the Côte de Nuits. Expect character, freshness, and a story of two friends leaving finance and science behind to chase Pinot dreams.
• Domaine Jean Féry – a historic 33-hectare estate that has recently undergone a massive qualitative transformation. With parcels from Savigny-lès-Beaune to Pernand-Vergelesses and guidance from top-level consultants, their reds (and a surprise white or two…) are now competing with much more famous names — at a fraction of the price.

These are producers that sommeliers are starting to whisper about, and we’ll taste them before the rest of the world catches on.

### 🍽 What about food?

As always, wines will be paired with typical products from the Bourgogne region, chosen to match the wines and offer a full sensory experience — and yes, there will be vegetarian options too.
