    Join us for an extraordinary evening with acclaimed Burgundy winemaker Numa Cornut, whose wines reflect a remarkable blend of family heritage, innovation, and a deep respect for terroir.

    Born into a family with nine generations of winemaking tradition, Numa began his journey at his family's estate in the Rhône Valley before studying viticulture and enology and gaining experience across some of the world's most respected wine regions. Today, he crafts expressive, small-production wines from some of Burgundy's most celebrated appellations, guided by a philosophy of sustainable farming and minimal intervention that allows each vineyard site to speak for itself.

    Throughout the evening, guests will enjoy a five-course menu from the Posana culinary team, expertly paired with five exceptional wines:

    • Bourgogne Blanc & Bourgogne Rouge
    • Meursault
    • Puligny-Montrachet
    • Pommard
    • Volnay

    As each pairing is presented, Numa will share stories from the vineyard, insights into his winemaking approach, and the passion behind each bottle—creating an unforgettable experience for wine enthusiasts and curious drinkers alike.
