    The Medlar sommelier team is taking you on an exclusive wine journey through the Gascogne region. Historical properties of the Brumont family, Château Montus and Château Bouscassé, have been pioneers in the Madiran appellation and are well respected for their expression of the local Tannat. We will have the pleasure to host Antoine Veiry, head winemaker of the Brumont properties, to share with you the philosophy of the wineries as well as the rich diversity of terroirs in the region. Strong from experiences in respected wineries in Champagne, the Rhône and around the world; Antoine became Head winemaker of both Chateaux in 2018.

    Amazing food at a great value. Absolutely wonderful staff making one welcome and attentive without being intrusive. Great wine list even-though rather on the pricey side and higher end of mark up!

    Love everything about Medlar! The service from the moment we arrived was outstanding and the food absolutely delicious. Every course was special, each dish a work of art. Made perfect by the birthday greetings and dessert for my husband at the end. Thoroughly recommend and we will be back soon!
