A taste of Burgundy
On November 29th, Restaurant Patrick Guilbaud welcomed Jean-Charles le Bault de la Morinière from Domaine Bonneau du Martray. As one of the leading Côte d’Or producers and the only estate in Burgundy to exclusively produce wine from Grand Cru vineyards, we were honoured to welcome him to Dublin.
Dishes such as Boudin of scallops, Roast Native Red Deer and Croquant of pear provided a perfect match for vintages including Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru white 2009, 2007, 2006 – described as "one of the very greatest in all Burgundy" – and Grand Cru Corton Rouge, 1999 and 2001.
It was a wonderful evening, relished by all and we would like to thank Charles Derain of Nomad Wine who helped make the evening so successful.
