Here is a copy of the invitation we sent to the members. We are cordially extending the invitation to you, also. Space at this seminar is more limited than is usual for our events. Reserve soonest to make sure you have a seat to taste some of the best wines Burgundy has to offer. * * * * * * It is a pleasure to invite you to join us Tuesday, June 29, 2004, for a fascinating seminar featuring "2002 BURGUNDIES from MAISON JOSEPH DROUHIN." Founded in 1880, this famous "negociant firm" located in the heart of Beaune, France, produces some of the world's finest wines from some of France's most famous Burgundian vineyards. In addition, the Drouhin Family owns the outstanding U.S. winery, Domaine Drouhin Oregon. The House of Drouhin produces upwards of 80 different wines each year, many of which are extremely limited and difficult to obtain. Chardonnay for White Burgundy and Pinot Noir for Red Burgundy are the main grapes used in this treasured appellation. The three massive cellars (all preserved in their original states) of the Drouhin Family include one with Gothic architecture and vaulted ceilings built in the 13th Century, one situated beneath the 14th-Century former palace of the Dukes of Burgundy and one located under the ancient Parliament of Beaune-a cellar that was built for the kings of France in the 16th Century. According to the latest issue of Wine Spectator, all is "Red, White and Beautiful in Burgundy. In 2002, thanks to an extraordinary harvest, both red and white wines are outstanding." What great timing it is for our preview of the exciting Maison Joseph Drouhin 2002 white and red Burgundies, which are being sent to us from their cellars in Beaune especially for our event. In a repeat of last year's successful seminar, we are delighted to welcome back our special guest NETTA WILLIAMS, the long-time and knowledgable Regional Sales Manager for Maison Joseph Drouhin. Netta will lead us in this barrel-sample tasting, which promises to be an illuminating experience for all of us. Among the treats will be the 2002 Beaune Clos des Mouches Blanc, 2002 Beaune Clos des Mouches Red and 2002 Charmes Chambertin. In addition, we will show three wines from the Drouhins' Oregon property. All of the wines served will be available to order at very special "futures" pricing for delivery in November, 2004.
