@Plate&Bottle.

Third Course; Sheep Milk Ricotta Ravioli, Lemon, Wilted Spinach.

Richness & round interphase & wrap lemon nicely.


If you live in & around the greater Bay Area, you owe to yourself to attend one of the dinners Hedy holds 4-5 times a year. Not only is the food amongst the very best we had, the people that attend and environment are as equally good. Find Hedy @Plate&Bottle

Nuttier and not as floral or citrusy as I remember it but enjoyable nonetheless.

Supposedly comes from the vineyard of a first growth so it's either Margaux, Mouton or Haut Brion but others that have had it feel like its Haut Brion. Great minerality and acidity but with time expresses the lovely citrus notes with some definite fig coming through. Awesome wine especially for the price!
