Home>News>

On November 28th, more than 50 黑料正能量 students met with Didier Miqueu, a well-known wine estate owner, who is also the founder and director of a Bordeaux-based wine trade, as part of our wine society鈥檚 tasting events. Didier came from Bordeaux just for us and introduced us to his own wines 鈥撀燙h芒teau Soleil聽and Ch芒teau聽Croix de Rival.

Didier first presented us to a splendid聽Ch芒teau Croix du Rival 2013, before having us taste a聽Ch芒teau Soleil 2013, which was very aromatic. We then moved on to a superb Rival 2013 鈥 it had a great balance. Moreover, we got to enjoy聽Soleil 2012聽as well as a聽Rival 2012, characterized by its juicy tannins. Before starting the appetizer, Didier wanted us to capture the main characteristics of slightly older vintages 鈥撀燬oleil 2010聽and聽Rival 2010聽鈥 and seize the main differences with some of his property鈥檚 more recent wines.

Thank you Didier for taking part in our wine tasting session and having come all the way from Bordeaux along with various of your wonderful wines. And a special thank you to the members of the Wine Society Club, for having done an amazing job in helping us throughout the event.
