The Fine Wine Experience Burghound Symposium is back in 2025! We have an exciting programme of masterclasses, dinners, and our paulée-style gala dinner ready for you. It’s all about deepening our pleasure in and our appreciation for Burgundy, with plenty of fun along the way.
You’ll find all the details below, and tickets are on sale now!
We are flying in leading Burgundy critic and writer Allen Meadows (and 'Mrs. Burghound' too!), as well as a range of great Burgundy producers, in person. There is much to learn about the complex yet rewarding fine wine region of Burgundy. Allen’s expertise, his complete fluency in the subject, and his ability to teach, to lead, and to moderate discussion offer much to both the novice and the experienced aficionado.
And, at the producer-led events, meet the producers, and learn from their first hand experience and their wines. This year we are delighted to welcome Antoine Amiot from Domaine Amiot-Servelle, Bertrand Dugat from Domaine Claude Dugat, Christian Clerget from Domaine Christian Clerget & Antoine Lepetit de la Bigne.
The Fine Wine Experience Burghound Symposium has been running annually since 2015 (with an intermission for the pandemic), and this year we begin with a solid, wide-ranging programme in Hong Kong. We are delighted to finish by returning to Bangkok, where we had such a great time last year. In between – something new for us – Tokyo! We look forward to seeing you at any or all three cities this year.
Tickets are of course limited at all events, and at certain dinners, very limited. We recommend you book as early as possible to avoid disappointment - events@finewineexperience.com or call +852 2803 0753.

RARE WINE DINNER: 2001 BURGUNDY – 25 YEARS ON
1st Floor, West Side of Jinbei Building, 59 Maoming South Road, Huangpu District, Shanghai (near, Changle Road junction)
Twenty five years is a great moment of review a classic vintage – most of the great wines will have
reached their peak, but not yet slipped into decline, and the distance of time also allows us to
appreciate the vintage itself in historical context. The vintage itself threw plenty of challenges at the
vigneron (especially for the whites), the vintage is today of high interest to the Burgundy enthusiast.
As Allen noted, ‘While the ’01 reds were not charming initially, from the beginning we viewed these as
classically styled Burgundies of elegance, grace, refinement and transparency.’ Over dinner at 1929 by
Guillaume Galliot we will take a deep dive into the 2001 vintage through the lens of some of the most
iconic and high performing domaines (Leroy, DRC, Roumier…), and a wide range of top vineyards –
mostly grand cru, led by the master of the subject, Allen Meadows.
