    About the event

    A seated masterclass on Hermitage

    Hermitage Masterclass: La Tablée 2026 is a seated wine masterclass and educational tasting seminar focused on Hermitage, presented as part of La Tablée NYC’s December 9–12, 2026 Rhône wine festival. The wider festival showcases Rhône Valley wines from both the North and South, while this session narrows the focus to Hermitage.

    Hermitage through terroir and producers

    The program describes Hermitage as the monolithic hill of the Northern Rhône, with expressions in both red and white wines. The masterclass is built around the terroir and producers of Hermitage, using that region as the subject of the session rather than the festival as a whole.

    Paz Levinson presents, Edouard Bourgeois moderates

    Paz Levinson is listed as the sommelier and presenter for the masterclass, and Edouard Bourgeois is listed as moderator. The program also says Levinson is originally from Argentina and has been Executive Chef Sommelier of Chef Anne-Sophie Pic’s Groupe Pic since 2018.

    That presenter-and-moderator setup keeps the session tightly focused on the region, with Levinson guiding the discussion of Hermitage’s producers and terroir.
