A Culinary Journey Through Bordeaux and Burgundy

In December 2024, iDealwine hosted a spectacular dinner that highlighted the best of both Bordeaux and Burgundy. The evening featured Saskia de Rothschild from Château Lafite alongside Jean-Nicolas Méo from Méo-Camuzet. Their mutual respect made this collaboration effortless.

The venue was Petrelle, a charming restaurant nestled in Paris’s 9th arrondissement, where guests were welcomed into an ambiance reminiscent of a cozy provincial home. The dinner commenced with Bollinger’s La Grande Année 2015, a deep champagne showcasing perfectly ripe Pinot Noir. This delightful start set the stage for an exquisite meal that included:

• Marinated scallops paired with Clos Saint-Philibert 2014,
• Vosne-Romanée Les Chaumes 2009 exhibiting exotic character,
• Nuits-Saint-Georges Aux Boudots 2005, known for its delicate texture paired beautifully with rock mullet.

This journey through flavors continued with dishes complemented by exceptional wines from both regions, culminating in an unforgettable experience.

The Legendary Trilogy of Château Lafite

One of the highlights of the evening was an intriguing blind tasting challenge featuring three iconic vintages from Château Lafite: 1988, 1989, and 1990. Guests were invited to rank their preferences among these masterpieces served in magnums.

This unique approach allowed participants to appreciate each vintage‘s distinct characteristics:

• 1988: Freshness and elegance,
• 1989: Bold flamboyance,
• 1990: Masterful balance.

Each sip offered insights into what makes Château Lafite legendary—a combination of history, terroir, and craftsmanship that leaves a lasting impression on any wine lover.

Celebrating Dom Pérignon at Tracé

As Christmas approached, another exclusive event took place at Tracé restaurant celebrating the renowned Dom Pérignon champagne. Under the guidance of Giacomo Fanzio, brand ambassador for Dom Pérignon, guests explored various cuvées throughout their meal—a rare opportunity to taste these exceptional champagnes across courses.

The evening featured:

• Dom Pérignon Vintage 2012, elegant with notes of white flowers and summer fruits,
• Dom Pérignon Vintage 2015, complex and rich, perfect alongside seafood dishes.
  Each pairing demonstrated how well-crafted champagne can elevate even the simplest ingredients into extraordinary culinary experiences.

The highlight was tasting Dom Pérignon’s Plénitude 2 (P2) vintage 2006—an aged marvel showcasing depth and character that paired wonderfully with innovative dishes crafted by Chef Clément Vergeat.
