Introduction

We took the kids with us to celebrate our wedding anniversary and their end of school year exams. Great company and with fantastic quality of food and service from the Steak House team.

Flight 1 - Fresh French Oysters "au naturel" (1 Note)

A great pairing.

2010 Henri Bourgeois Pouilly-Fumé En Travertin 90 Points

France, Loire Valley, Upper Loire, Pouilly-Fumé

From Jeraboam, which is a nice touch for a wine served by the glass. Green gold medium colour. Nose is clean, crisp ozone-fresh crushed oyster shells. Palate is clean, fresh mouthwatering acidity and minerality. Lots of flint and slate. Has some body too. Great typicity. Perfect with French fresh oysters. Good length. Very good.

Flight 2 - Aged US Prime Chateaubriand with Truffles "Alumettes" French Fries (1 Note)

Gosh, this was a great combination.

2008 Domaine Chandon de Briailles Corton-Bressandes 90 Points

France, Burgundy, Côte de Beaune, Corton Grand Cru

Jeweled transparent ruby colour. Nose is slightly damp soil and reticent strawberries with an attractive sweaty sock element. Palate is full, rich, rounded sweet strawberry fruit and forward but not intrusive oak. Surprisingly rounded and open for its youth. Very more-ish. Perfect with serious aged steaks and truffle mustard.
