Upon arriving at the estate, we found an old stable transformed into a modern restaurant. We visited the restaurant's vegetable garden before sitting down.
On the menu, a tasting menu featuring vegetables from the garden and meats from the farm.
On the plate, vegetables and herbs from the garden with extraordinary flavor. Perfectly cooked. Delicious.
In the glass, for the aperitif, a citrus gin and tonic and a lavender gin and tonic, subtle and flavorful. And the menu offered an original and enjoyable wine pairing.
For the two of us, we ordered 2 tasting menus, 2 food and wine pairings, and 2 gin and tonics, for €405.
Although, despite being a delicious experience, the service was too slow. We stayed for 3.5 hours for 4 courses. And the 5 wine glasses were not filled enough, even for half glasses, especially for an €80 pairing.
Maybe I will return to try the winter vegetables?
Thank you, Le Doyenné!
