Dinner continues with a pithiviers of foie gras, Nant d’Avril poultry and black truffle, served with two Chambolle-Musigny 2017 and 2018. Plin ravioli with truffle and ricotta will then dialogue with a 2012 Chambolle-Musigny^1er cru Les Cras and a 2012 Bonnes-Mares Grand cru. The main course, Black Angus beef with truffled mousseline, is paired with a Morey-Saint-Denis^1er cru Clos de la Bussière 2020, before a truffled Brie from Bruand paired with the 2022 vintage of the same wine.
