Feuillete 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 #presstripThe extraordinary vineyards, soil and famous chapel of Hermitage.
