Posted on March 1 2017 at 07:25

March 1st is St David’s Day so what better to focus on than Wales’s national symbol, the leek? (Well they have daffodils and dragons too but I’m assuming you don’t want to eat either of those ... )

Fabulous dish of cod, brandade and truffle last night at La Table de Sorgues - perfect with a @pierreamadieu white Cairanne #guest. . . . #whitewine #cairanne #cotesdurhone #cod #truffle #winepairing #wineandfood #finediningFeuillete of mackerel and sea bass with aubergine caviar at the Auberge de Tavel - along with some very good olive breD. Good with Tavel obvs but surprisingly good with a red Lorax too. #presstrip. . . . #feuillete #filo #mackerel #seabass #tavel #olives #bread #rhone #winetrip #instafood #foodstagramFabulous bit of haute cuisine from Matthieu Viannay of @lamerebrazier at the Hermitage dinner last night: a pike quenelle shaped like a piece of fish with an unctuous lobster sauce. It was also a brilliant match with a Domaine Jean-Claude et Nicolas Fayolle Les Dionnieres 2017 and a 2008 Chapoutier white Hermitage - not on the menu and decanted so afraid I can’t tell you which one #guest. . . . #pike #brochet #quenelle #lobster #homard #lemerebrazier #finedining #hautecuisine #whitehermitage #hermitage #wineandfoodpairing #instafood #foodstagramTasting of older Hermitage vintages at La Chapelle du Lycée Gabriel Faure. This @jeanlouischave 1998 Hermitage is one of the best wines I’ve ever tasted though his 1998 white ran it close. . . . #wine #hermitage #finewine #jeanlouischave #winetasting #instawine #winestagram #lescrusdescôtesdurhône #presstrip Follow on Instagram
