In celebration of Singapore as a major host city during the IMF /World Bank Annual Meeting, and as part of our continuous passion for food and memorable food experiences we'd like to make you aware of a NEW special set dinner in our a la carte this month. Food and wine pairing is becoming increasingly popular as more and more food lovers discover how a simple meal can be enhanced to become quite an experience through a careful pairing of flavours in food and wine. "Food without wine is a corpse; wine without food is a ghost; united & well matched they are body & soul, living partners." - Andre Simon (1877-1970)

The
wines: The White 2005 It offers an intense nose of white peach, fresh ginger, pears and aromatic herbs. Dry yet richly flavoured, this multi-faceted wine evolves in the glass and will also reward cellaring. Cabernet Sauvignon 2004, Gimblett Gravels, Hawkes Bay An opulent nose of ripe blackcurrants, freshly ground coffee, liquorice and black cherries, leading to a full-bodied palate of ripe, juicy berry fruits,warm spicy oak and velvety rich tannins. This wine will reward cellaring. 2004 Syrah, Gimblett Gravels, Hawkes Bay This wine has the classic syrah nose of black pepper, sweet plums and cedarwood while the palate is sumptuous and full-bodied with a rich complexity characteristic of this unique region. 2005 Riesling, Wairau Valley, Marlborough The 2005 Riesling offers stone-fruit and fresh lime aromas, delicate fruit sweetness and fresh, flinty acidity. The flavours are complimentary to many Asian-inspired dishes and this wine also serves as a perfect aperitif. This Riesling has the ability to reward cellaring for five or more years. 2004 Chardonnay, Wairau Valley, Marlborough Aromas of lemon honey, toasted brioche and freshly ground spice are followed by a sumptuous palate of ripe peach and nectarine flavours balanced with a seamless acidity and subtle, nutty oak. 2005 Noble Riesling, Brancott Valley, Marlborough This sweet wine is an outstanding example, with aromas of ripe apricots, honeysuckle and orange zest and a rich and luscious palate, brimming with stone-fruits and the signature flavour of fresh mango, and finishing with refreshing acidity. 2004 Pinot Noir, Waitaki Valley, North Otago The 2004 Pinot Noir captures the unique mineral characters and offering aromas of cherries, violets and white pepper. The palate has flavours of sweet red fruits balanced by silky tannins and a bright acidity all of which evolve in the glass to a savoury, almost gamey finish. |
