Baron Philippe deRothschild Dinner

Hosted by Edouard Thouvenot of Baron Philippe de Rothschild in association with Dillon Bass.
Wine reception at 7pm.

This six course wine dinner will be the highlight of The Merchant's gourmet calendar.
The wines for this exceptional evening have been personally selected and paired with the evening's menu by Edouard Thouvenot. Edouard will be on hand throughout the evening to share his passion for these wines and for the importance of tradition and attention to detail within this unique estate.
The company was created in 1933 by Baron Philippe de Rothschild and today remains family owned and managed by his daughter, the Baroness Philippine, supported by her two sons. The highlight of the selection will be a mature vintage of Chateau Mouton Rothschild, one of the five great first growths of Bordeaux. This magnificent wine will be ably complemented from the Rothschild portfolio by fine wines from Pauillac, Graves and Sauternes.
£75 per person.
