Experience the essence of Bordeaux at an intimate dinner at Restaurant Franco Belge, with special guest and friend, Daniel Airoldi DipWSET.
Born in Nérac and raised on the outskirts of Bordeaux, Daniel brings a lifetime of Bordeaux knowledge and passion to the table.
Now CEO of Australia Wine and Spirits (AWS), Daniel is renowned as one of Australia’s foremost Bordeaux specialists, with over two decades in the local wine industry.

Expect a deep dive into the nuances of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and the grapes that define Bordeaux, accompanied by stories from Daniel’s remarkable career.
