Independent Bottling: Rich, Bold, and Unique
2018-04-19 19:00 - 21:00 (Asia/Hong_Kong) | Malt Masters, Hong Kong, Hong Kong
Distilleries produce the spirits but they don’t own and bottle every cask of whisky stored in the warehouses of Scotland. They swap and sell both new spirits and casks of mature whisky to other companies who are independently making whiskies under their own brand, the #IndependentBottlers.
Malt Masters’ whisky expert and specialist will take you on a journey discovering behind-the-scene of Independent Bottlers. Join us to taste 4 whiskies from different Independent Bottlers, the Hepburn’s Choice, Duncan Taylor Scotch Whisky Ltd, Douglas Laing & Co., and Ian Macleod Distillers Limited; and experience their rich taste, bold aromas, and unique stories behind.…

Clos St-Jacques Masterclass with Allen Meadows
2018-04-21 11:00 - 13:00 | Island Shangri-La, Hong Kong, Pacific Place, Supreme Court, Central, Hong Kong, Hong Kong, Hong Kong
A favourite debate amongst Burgundy enthusiasts is which of the Côte d’Or’s 1er Crus might deserve upgrading to grand cru status. Gevrey-Chambertin’s ‘Clos Saint-Jacques’ always comes up in such discussions. According to Clive Coates MW, ‘when it came to be decreed what was grand cru and what was not in the 1930s, it was decided that only climats contiguous with Chambertin and Clos de Beze would be considered for top rank. Ruchottes and Mazoyeres scraped in, for a finger of each touches the magic core. Clos Saint-Jacques, on its own, but perfectly poised on the Combe de Lavaux flank, was excluded.’
Today however, it is clear that Burgundy enthusiasts judge it amongst the grands crus, with their wallets, as prices for Clos St Jacques today exceed some grands crus, even within a domaine’s range.
Another interesting aspect is ownership. From the 19th century until 1954 the vineyard was a monopole of the Comte de Moucheron. It was then sold, and is today owned and produced by 5 domaines, all with regular shaped strips from the bottom to the top of the vineyard:
2.21ha, Domaine Armand Rousseau
1.60ha, Domaine Sylvie Esmonin
1.00ha, Domaine Louis Jadot (ex-Domaine Clair Dau)
1.00ha, Domaine Bruno Clair (ex-Domaine Clair Dau)
0.89ha, Domaine Fourrier
In today’s masterclass Allen Meadows will help us understand the factors that give Clos Saint-Jacques its character. By tasting each of the 5 domaines producing it side by side in 2 vintages – 2011 and 2008 – we will come away with a clear idea of what that character is, as well as how each of the 5 domaines involved interpret it.

Domaine Amiot-Servelle Chambolle-Musigny 1er Crus Masterclass
2018-04-21 14:30 - 16:00 | Island Shangri-La, Hong Kong, Pacific Place, Supreme Court, Central, Hong Kong, Hong Kong, Hong Kong
The Côte de Nuits’ Chambolle-Musigny produces wines often described as having finesse, delicacy, charm, and subtlety. Yet, within this framework – one that distinguishes it from neighbouring villages – are differences that are rewarding to know for the Burgundy enthusiast.
After gaining her diploma in oenology, daughter Prune began working at the domaine in 2011. Domaine Amiot-Servelle was established in 1989 through the marriage of Christian Amiot and Elisabeth Servelle. As Chambolle-Musigny specialists, they have won high praise for their sensitive approach to representing its terroirs, following no recipe but adapting closely to the conditions of each vintage, and each vineyard specifically. Some whole clusters are used but only where warranted and for the proportion that works. They have farmed organically since 2003 and been certified since 2008.
For this masterclass we will be fortunate to have with us in Hong Kong Prune Amiot-Servelle and her brother Antoine who has also joined the domaine, who together with Allen Meadows will take us through four different Chambolle-Musigny 1er Crus climats. The selection includes one of the greatest vineyards in all of Burgundy – Les Amoureuses. Taking a close look at these vineyards through the lens of just one producer, but in two contrasting vintages will give us the chance to really hone in on the similarities and differences of these four terroirs.

畫壁The Painting on the Wall
2018-05-03 20:15 - 21:45, 2018-05-04 20:15 - 21:45
The Painting on the Wall plunges the reader into the fantastical world of Chinese tales and reveals the ‘supernatural’ power of the art of painting. If different readings are possible, the ideas of illusion and transcendence are omnipresent in the work. Angelin Preljocaj has chosen to immerse himself in the heart of this unusual world. Without literally telling its story, he retains the Chinese tale as the source of a more contemporary adaptation.
《畫壁》讓讀者進入中國聊齋故事的幻想世界，原來繪畫具有一種「超自然」力量，要是從不同的角度來解讀，可以說這舞蹈充滿了虛幻之美和超越凡塵的想法，呼應原著「幻由人作」的主旨。柏歷加要沉浸在這不尋常的世界當中，但他並沒有如實搬演聊齋的故事，而是以之為出發點，改編成一齣當代舞蹈。

重塑《魔笛》 Reinventing the Magic Flute
2018-05-12 20:00 - 21:30 | 香港大會堂, 愛丁堡廣場五號, Central District, Hong Kong
莫扎特歌劇《魔笛》在維也納首演十年後，才第一次在法國出現，改稱為《埃及女神伊西斯之謎》(Isis’ Mysteries)。此名稱一方面標示作品中的共濟會特色，另一方面反映當時巴黎的古埃及熱潮。正是在這個環境下，一位不記名的法國作曲家把《魔笛》的序曲及最有名的詠嘆調改編給弦樂四重奏。我們將邀請扎伊德四重奏 Quatuor Zaïde為我們重塑經典《魔笛》。
The Magic Flute was first performed in France under the title Isis’ Mysteries in 1801, ten years after the Vienna premiere. The title referred to the work’s masonic character and reflected the prevailing interest in Ancient Egypt at that time in Paris. This was the context that brought an anonymous French composer to write a transcription of the overture and the most famous arias for string quartet. This year we will invite Quatuor Zaïde to present us with Reinventing the Magic Flute.

Burn Cottage - star NZ Pinot Noir dinner with Andy Crozier
2018-05-22 19:00 - 22:00 | Lai Bun Fu 禮賓傅, 5/F, 18 On Lan Street, Central, Hong Kong, Hong Kong
Join us for our Burn Cottage wine dinner with Burn Cottage’s Andy Crozier, a vertical of fine Central Otago Pinot Noirs to match Chef Chung King Leung’s masterful cuisine at Lai Bun Fu. This dinner is a classic East meets West (or more accurately, East meets South) event. Andy has dipped into the estate’s cellars to bring us a range of vintages from this rising star. There is also a wonderfully idiosyncratic estate-grown white – a blend of Riesling and Grüner Veltliner which we will show for the first time in Hong Kong.
The 2014 tied for top place honours in Decanter’s Vintage Report of 2014 New Zealand Pinot Noirs. That Burn Cottage achieved that (and many other accolades) in just its 6th vintage (we shall taste the inaugural 2009) is testament to the quality of the terroir and the team in place. Owner Marquis Sauvage put Ted Lemon (of Littorai and Roulot fame) in charge, and right from the start the estate was conceived on biodynamic principles.
I was so impressed with the estate’s ethos, the quality of its site, its team, and its wines on a visit early last year that I knew this agency was for us. So I am excited about this opportunity to dive deeper with you. We shall experience the wines’ great versatility with Hong Kongese/Cantonese cuisine at its very best.

Le French May: Sarabande
2018-05-23 20:00 - 21:30 | 上環文娛中心劇院 Sheung Wan Civic Centre Theatre, 香港皇后大道中345號上環市政大廈5樓, Hong Kong, Hong Kong
Three of the famous Suites for cello of J.S. Bach played by Noémi Boutin, interlaced in the extraordinary juggleries of Jörg Müller, outstanding Circassian artist who reconciles a pure physical performance with theatre, dance and contemporary art.
Sarabande is a triptych rhythmed by the famous Suites for Cello of J.S Bach, No. 1, 3, and 5 from where the cellist expresses delicacy and elegance. Her music comes to embrace around three living pictures performed by the tightrope walker and dancer Jörg Müller. In the first picture, Jorg holds his balance with manipulating a candle lit and putting at the end of a pole. The frail and unstable flame asserts its soft vitality despite its fragility. Then, he flies a merry-go-round of suspended tubes. We contemplate them to spin, to touch, to live together without ever disrupting this merry dance. Finally, it is in the fifth continuation for harmonies so intense and deep as the meeting arrives at its peak.
From now on, it is the musician who is suspended, her fragility of interpreter aggravated by the air vaulting which the juggler breathes. And every time, he “turns into pictures” this mesmerizing Sarabande of Bach.

Noémi演奏三首巴赫著名的大提琴組曲，並與Jörg出神入化的雜技互相配合。Jörg是一位出色的切爾克斯藝術家，他的演出糅合肢體表演、劇場、舞蹈及現代藝術。
Sarabande《薩拉班德》為巴赫其中一首家傳戶曉的大提琴組曲(No.1,3,及5)。三組意境細膩優雅的樂曲為高空鋼索特技人兼舞者Jörg的演出譜寫三場充滿生命力場景。第一幕，Jörg把點燃了的蠟燭放在桿子的末端，透過靈巧的身手來保持蠟燭的平衡。微弱和不穩定的火焰雖然脆弱，但卻具有柔韌的生命力。第二幕，他在一些吊管間如旋轉木馬般飛躍、旋轉，時而交錯，時而接觸，現場的觀眾都屏息靜氣地看著他歡快地舞動。最後一幕是和諧的第五次延續，他們之間的相會到了最引人入勝的時刻。
從表演一開始，音樂家以她對音樂細膩的傳繹，隨著雜耍藝術家的呼吸加劇。每一次，他都將迷人的Sarabande變成了一幅圖畫。
