Wines of succulence and stature, with shellfish we sipped white @chateaumusar a blend of ancient Lebanese grape varieties Obaideh and Merwah (said to be related to Chasselas Chardonnay and Semillon) feemented in oak and deliciously moreish.

With my chicken wellington (scrumptious) I revelled in red Idda By Gaja from Mount Etna on Sicily, blended from Nerello Capuccio and Nerello Mascalese, an ethereally powerful wine with volcanic roots🍷

Here’s to the brilliance of The Beaumont 🥂
