An evening with Jenny Dobson

4.8 across all classes · 1,498 reviews

 Jenny Dobson shattered the glass ceiling when she was appointed as the first female cellar master of a Bordeaux Chateau in the 1980's. Her CV is mightily impressive, dating back to her time with Stephen Spurrier MW at his Academie du Vin in Paris to learning under the tutelage of Jacques Seysses at Domaine Dujac. Jenny is widely recognised as a master in the art of blending. 

Jenny’s own label has taken her back to her roots in Hawke’s Bay, where she crafts a world class Fiano alongside elegant Right Bank Bordeaux-inspired wines. 

Join Jenny for an intimate evening of exceptional wines, fascinating stories and a rare insight into the craft and character behind the bottle.


When: Wednesday 7th October

Time: 6:30pm - 8:00pm
