A Private Game Dinner Created By A Very Prominent Canadian Chef.

A Private Game Dinner Created By A Very Prominent Canadian Chef 

The chef who created this meal is easily one of the very great chefs in Canada and one of the 2 or 3 best game chefs in Ontario. He must remain anonymous because of our antiquated food laws here.

Some of the wines we enjoyed with this meal:

1990 Le Montrachet by Remoissenet, in peak condition, well balanced, lovely fruit and long finish.

A 2011 Coche Dury Meursault, quite a fabulous nose, rather rich tasting with a slight mineral aspect.

Fabulous 1990 Bonne Mares from Compte Georges de Vogue, tasting of earthy minerality and dark fruits, well balanced with a nice long finish.
