Christian Seely Winemaker’s lunch - Wednesday 13 December, 12.30p.m. for 1p.m.

Christian Seely is a towering figure in the wine trade and – as MD of AXA Millésimes – custodian of some of the world’s most admired wine estates. He also makes his own wine in Hampshire – Coates & Seely. Christian will chat to us as we enjoy such beauties from the AXA Millésimes stable as 2021 Disznoko Dry Furmint; 2021 Lions Sec de Suduiraut; 2018 Quinta do Noval Reserva and not one, not two but three wines from the 2016 vintage at Pauillac’s 2ième Grand Cru Classé, Ch. Pichon Baron: Les Tourelles, Les Griffons and the extraordinary Pichon Baron grand vin itself. We will finish with 2011 Disznoko Tokaji Aszu 5 Puttonyos and, as if that wasn’t enough, 2007 Quinta do Noval Colheita, the rarest of tawny ports from a single vintage aged insmall barrels.
