Alliance Wine recently had the privilege of hosting Chiara Drocco from Cascina Adelaide for an extraordinary exploration of their exceptional Barolo portfolio. Our whirlwind tour of London included a delightful lunch at Casa Tua, an insightful tasting session at New Street Wine Shop, and a visit to the elegant Mandarin Oriental on Bond Street, culminating in an exclusive winemaker dinner at the esteemed 3 AA Rosette Orrery restaurant. Under Chiara's expert guidance, guests embarked on a captivating journey through Cascina Adelaide's single cru wines from renowned vineyards such as Cannubi, Fossati, Baudana, and Bussia and Chef Patron Igor Tymchyshy's thoughtfully curated menu perfectly complemented the wines, elevating the dining experience to new heights. While the 2017 𝘉𝘢𝘳𝘰𝘭𝘰 𝘍𝘰𝘴𝘴𝘢𝘵𝘪 was a particular standout, each wine, from the powerful 2017 vintages to the elegant 2019 selections, showcased the unique terroir of Barolo DOCG and demonstrated the meticulous craftsmanship behind every bottle.

We recently hosted an exclusive masterclass at the esteemed London restaurant Quo Vadis Soho, featuring the renowned producer Domaine des Baumard. Owner and winemaker Florent Baumard led the exclusive tasting, guiding a group of London's top sommeliers through the unique qualities of Loire Valley Chenin Blanc, specifically from Savennières and Quarts de Chaume. Florent generously shared multiple vintages from his premier vineyards, including rare library stock. A particular highlight was a transcendent Quarts de Chaume from 1967, its honeyed character offering intriguing complexity. Merlin Ramos of Kioku by Endo remarked on its fascinating notes of "miso, shitake, and mango." Domaine des Baumard stands as a leading producer in the appellation. Their Quarts de Chaume is consistently lauded by critics for its "crystalline precision" and "impressive depth," earning high scores from Wine Enthusiast, Decanter, JancisRobinson.com , and The Wine Advocate. The Savennières from the renowned Clos St Yves and Clos du Papillon vineyards impressed with their richness, balance, and elegance. Our head of London on-trade, Holly Sharpe, particularly favoured the 2014 Savennières Clos du Papillon, noting its "viscous texture ... orange rind and pink grapefruit, nectarine and honeysuckle" profile. The entire menu at Quo Vadis was exceptional – especially their renowned chicken pie with a crunchy suet crust – but the pistachio meringues provided a particularly decadent finish, perfectly complementing the Quarts de Chaume. We're grateful to Florent Baumard for sharing his expertise and exceptional wines and to Quo Vadis for their impeccable hospitality. This masterclass truly showcased the unique terroir and craftsmanship behind Domaine des Baumard's world-class wines.
