Introduction
Theme Old Bordeaux
Thanks for your interest in our vintage Bordeaux wine dinner. Here's my proposal:
Date/Time: Nov 8th, Saturday, 7:30pm
Venue: Chez Moi (Causeway Bay)
Price: $1380 (food: $450, wine: $930)
Total no. of attendees: 9 persons (incl. myself)
I have put together a wine line-up as follows specifically for your group:
- 2001 Blanc de Lynch Bages
- 1966 Ducru Beaucaillou
- 1966 Mouton Rothschild
- 1978 Duhart Milon Rothschild
- 1978 Domaine de Chevalier (Rouge)
- 1983 Leoville-Poyferre
- 1986 Clerc Milon Rothschild
We will kick off the dinner with a simple white wine from Lynch Bages. We will then focus on red Bordeaux of good vintages from the 60s, 70s and 80s. The highlight would be the comparison of Mouton vs. Ducru Beaucaillou from 1966. I personally tried the 1966 Ducru and it tasted fresh, just like something from the mid 80s. I am eagerly looking forward to try Mouton from this same legendary vintage.
