    Le Dîner Inaugural, un rendez-vous incontournable des Rencontres Jean-Marc Quarin

    THURSDAY MAY 28, 2026
    Starting at 7:30 p.m.

    A succession of different pleasures!

    To celebrate this eleventh edition, Christian Segui, Executive Chef of the Lausanne Hotel School and Meilleur Ouvrier de France (MOF), will welcome us on Thursday, May 28, 2026. Specially created with Jean-Marc Quarin, this dinner pushes the boundaries of pairings between gourmet cuisine and Bordeaux wines. The resulting creation is so unique that it gives rise to a surprising novelty where 1 plus 1 equals 3!

    Wines served directly from the châteaux
    Le diner inaugural des rencontres jean marc Quarin

    Why did I choose to serve wines
    from the 2017 vintage?

    Quite simply because they are very good right now.
    As a reminder, this vintage experienced a severe frost
    in the spring, leading to the assumption that the wine
    couldn’t possibly be good.
    However, in reality, the frost produced a natural selection.
    We know that it primarily affects
    the less favorable plots.
    For Quintus and Haut-Brion,
    the best is in the bottle! ”
