67 Pall Mall Presents: A Masterclass with Inglenook
Wed 20 Nov 2024 6:30 PM - 8:00 PM
Hip Cellar
Description
Founded by Gustav Niebaum, a Finnish sea captain in 1879, Inglenook plays a prominent role in defining Napa Valley as one of the great wine regions in the world. The famed filmmaker Francis Coppola and his wife, Eleanor Coppola, first purchased a portion of what had been the Inglenook estate. The Coppolas soon discovered the treasure of what they now own and vowed to reunite all the land from the estate, and Inglenook was finally reunited to its historic name in 2011.
At the helm of Inglenook is Philippe Bascaules, who became the Director of Winemaking after spending 21 years at Chateau Mârgaux. Drawing on his esteemed experience from Bordeaux, Philippe arrived in Napa Valley with a vision to marry Inglenook's storied terroir with contemporary winemaking excellence.
Join our masterclass with Philippe Bascaules for an exclusive tasting of some of Inglenook's most celebrated wines, including a vertical tasting of the iconic Rubicon vintages from 2013, 2015, 2017, and 2020, followed by the crisp and vibrant 2022 and 2016 Inglenook Blancaneaux. Delve into the nuances of each vintage and learn how the unique terroir influences the character of these exquisite wines.
We'll be tasting:

2016 Inglenook Blancaneaux
2020 Inglenook Rubicon
