Fresh and energetic, without sharpness. Served to pair the seafood platter and Devonshire crab tart; decent match too with the beetroot & goat cheese salad
PnP by the waiters, opened up in the glass. Nicely put-together, no sharp edges and very resolved tannins, but still perhaps a touch heavy for the fillet of halibut, olive mash.
Lovely fresh cut tropical fruits, mango and pineapple and lemon curd. Disappeared quickly alongside the triple chocolate and salted caramel fondant with praline ice cream (which, as desserts go, was _amazing_)
NV Henriot Champagne Brut Souverain
France, Champagne
Consistent with my previous note, at this same venue. Enjoyable if not overly complex.
