Les Nomades
Tasted Tuesday, January 8, 2008 by winefool with 491 views
Les Nomades is always one of the great dinners of the year and Tom W. did a great job choosing the 90 Montrose (and bringing a 1 to 4 ratio!). I did the food here for the first time and the menu was great. Chef Nougat did a nice job on the debrief and was very helpful.
The sauce foyot was very minimal and subtle and the whole dish was in a green sauce that I could not readily identify. Good for what it was.
Everything was well done and it worked very well. Best part were the frog legs which had the texture and flavor of sweetbreads. Saucing was very subtle.
Nice and subtle/sweet flavor. Best part was a side serving of seared foie.
Stunning presentation with the venison 'wrapped' in a thick layer of the sausage and cooked. Sauce was rich and delicious as expected.
The Port went way better with the little chocolate dish at the very end.
NV Pol Roger Champagne Brut Réserve 93 Points
France, Champagne
From a lot that had been cellared for about 8 years. Really lovely rich toasty champagne but with great life and acidity. Classic PR character. 93-94 pts.
