Wine Flight & Ingredient Details

Starter

Kooyong - 'Beurrot' Pinot Gris – From Australia’s Mornington Peninsula, this Pinot Gris comes from a single block planted in the corner of the Kooyong estate, and shows subtle, ripe notes of pear, apricot and peach, and well as a richer mouthfeel and vibrant salinity on the finish. It shows just enough depth and complexity to tease out the richer flavours of both our Celeriac and Lobster dishes, whilst still responding to the more saline and savoury components of our two courses.

Main

Ferraton - 'Les Calendes' Crozes Hermitage – Coming to us from one of the great negociant firms of the Northern Rhone, ‘Les Calendes’ is their expression of the terroirs which make up the Crozes-Hermitage appellation. Made exclusively from Syrah, the wine shows the juicy, voluptuous dark plum and cassis fruit characters so synonymous with the Rhone, alongside the subtle hints of olive and cracked black pepper, which I felt stood up perfectly to the spiciness of the horseradish, whilst being rich enough to keep up with onions and parsnips, whilst melting through the lamb shoulder.

Dessert

Daniel Vollenweider - 'Kröver Steffensberg' Spätlese Riesling – The late Daniel Vollenweider was regarded as one of the eminent producers of Spätlese wines (praise offered by no less than Egon Muller,) and his Kröver Steffensberg was regarded as his signature single vineyard, located in the Upper Mosel Valley in Germany. Age has brought that subtle scent of petrol, as well as focusing the richer, candied citrus notes of lime and lemon peel – which I felt was the perfect partner for the tang of the rhubarb compote, with the creaminess and weight of the mouthfeel resonating with the with buttermilk mousse.
