Located in the central part of France’s Bordeaux wine region, Château LaTour-Martillac has remained under the management of the Kressmann family since 1930. The estate owes its name to the tower  in the main courtyard, a remnant of a small 12th-century castle that existed until the French Revolution.

Château LaTour-Martillac is one of only six properties classified in the Graves for both red and white wines and is considered a benchmark reference for the Pessac-Léognan appellation.

Dinner will feature five wines including an example of the outstanding 2005 vintage and an expression of some of the oldest vines of Sémillon in the entire Bordeaux appellation.

The evening’s menu will be served as follows:

Assorted Canapés

In honor of Bastille Day, Bar Boulud celebrates with a special four-course wine dinner, featuring traditional Provençal cuisine along with all things rosé from Château d’Esclans.

Located fifteen miles northwest of the Mediterranean coast, in the sun-drenched landscape of Provence, Château d’Esclans is renowned for their mature Grenache vines, which produce grapes that offer a greater concentration of flavor, creating the palate-grabbing collection of rosé, for which the château is known.

On July 14, 2018, join Sommelier David Bérubé and special guest Alex Diard, Wine Ambassador for Château d’Esclans, who will pour pink and educate guests on some of the “finest rosé you will ever find,” according to Jonathan Ray, Drinks Editor of The Spectactor.
