Commanderie, confrérie, BORDEAUX

On 21 and 22 October 2026, the Commanderies de Bordeaux in Brazil celebrated the first anniversary of the Commanderie de Bordeaux in São Paulo, with the participation of the Association of Saint-Émilion Grands Crus Classés. Two days of meetings, wine tastings and celebrations brought together Bordeaux wine producers, importers, journalists and members of the Commanderie.

For the occasion, 14 producers representing 18 Saint-Émilion appellation estates travelled to Brazil to present their wines and meet professionals from the Brazilian market.

The celebrations began on 21 October with a lunch at Pobre Juan restaurant, bringing together 38 guests, including 11 journalists and influencers. This first gathering offered an opportunity to discover a selection of wines from the Saint-Émilion Grands Crus Classés.

The day continued with the Commanderie’s sixth Chapter, held at Casa Comitê, with a dinner attended by 50 guests.

On 22 October, a morning dedicated to induction ceremonies and a conference welcomed Felipe Galtaroça, CEO of IdealBI, and Luciano Stremel Barros, President of IDESF, as new Commandeurs de Bordeaux.

A business lunch at Altruísta Osteria e Enoteca then brought together nearly 60 participants, including numerous Brazilian importers. This gathering provided an excellent opportunity to showcase wines from the 24 Saint-Émilion Grands Crus Classés and strengthen ties with key players in the local market.

The celebrations concluded with a gala dinner at Piselli Boa Vista, bringing together 90 guests to enjoy the wines of the Saint-Émilion Grands Crus Classés. No fewer than 52 magnums were served for the occasion!

The Grand Conseil du Vin de Bordeaux extends its sincere thanks to Manu Brandao, Grand Maître of the Commanderies de Bordeaux in Brazil, to all the Maîtres and members of the Commanderie, as well as to Sylvie Cazes, President of the Association of Saint-Émilion Grands Crus Classés, the participating producers and all the partners who contributed to the success of this event.

Bordeaux, toujours Bordeaux!
