I’m pleased to share Carnation Capital’s next private wine dinner event!

I would like to invite you to a truly distinctive evening that goes beyond the traditional wine tasting—celebrating not just the acclaimed Le Dôme Saint-Émilion Grand Cru, but the visionary winery that defines its identity. Designed by Foster + Partners (architects behind Hong Kong International Airport, the HSBC Building, and Château Margaux), this architectural masterpiece is the only winery of its kind in Bordeaux’s Right Bank, blending cutting-edge design with the soul of Grand Cru terroir.

Please find attached your exclusive invitation !

Highlights of the Evening
– Experience the power and precision of Le Dôme, a cult wine that commands attention for its bold expression of Saint-Émilion’s finest terroir, presented by Jack Maltus, from the family behind this iconic label.
– Delve into the story of the Foster + Partners-designed winery, where architecture meets viticulture – offering rare insights into how design shapes the very essence of wine – presented by Colin Ward, Senior Partner of Foster + Partners Hong Kong

Why This Event is Unique
This is not just a winemaker dinner—it’s a dialogue between two crafts: the architect’s mastery of space and the winemaker’s mastery of terroir. Just as Le Dôme’s winery redefines Bordeaux’s winemaking landscape, this evening reimagines the wine-tasting experience, drawing compelling parallels between site constraints and soil composition, structure and vintage, innovation and tradition.
