Throwback to a fun hearty dinner with HK friends at our usual favourite Da Domenico🍷🙌

Champagne Marius Selosse Clos Roger ~ my first time trying this producer, & its rather good; fresh toasted brioche, baked apples, a touch of almonds; crisp vibrant acidity in that all too familiarly appealing oxidative style 🍾

2 legendary vintages of Hermitage La Chapelle.  The 1990 was a multi-dimensional beast with so much power & verve, dark juicy plums, grilled meat; still a long way from its peak.  The 1978 was weightlessly ethereal, with blissful bittersweet cherries, smokey incense, dried lychees; an effortless beauty in prime drinking zone💥

Saute Loup 2010 ~ a sort of “private family reserve” by Petrus, this has all the DNA of its Pomerol pedigree; a truly gifted nose of dark chocolate & vanilla cream, polished velvety fruitcore that displayed wonderful accelerated complexity over the course of the meal; a delicious drink👍
