Nick Dobson Wines is sponsoring a “Meet the Winemaker Dinner” on Tuesday 9 February 2010 at Café Strudel in Richmond, West London,
The evening includes a “fabulous gourmet meal” designed specially by Chef Yacine Benghazal (ex Marco-Pierre White) to accompany 7 different wines from the highly reputed Weingut Günter Triebaumer from Rust on the shores of ther Neusiedlersee, in Burgenland, Austria. Günter Triebaumer himself will be present and will introduce and explain each of his wines.
Nick Dobson specialises in Austrian wines (amongst others) . Rust is one of Austria’s many wine regions – specifically the Neusiedlersee-Hügelland wine area in the Burgenland – which as its name suggests is a region of lakes (Lake Neusiedel) and hills/mountains (Hugel)
Today, just as it was hundreds of years ago, wine serves as the foundation of existence for many families in Rust. In this sense they utilize what nature offers. The specific micro-climate of Lake Neusiedl, the various soil structures and the different altitudes of the vineyards provide a winegrowing environment with optimal conditions for the cultivation of white as well as red grape varieties.
These natural prerequisites, together with the know-how of the vintners, are the basis upon which the reputation of Rust stands. Here, one can experience that which can hardly be found elsewhere: the splendour of noble wines.
Amongst the wines to accompany the sumptuous menu will be a Muscato,a Traminer Spätlese, a Sauvignon Blanc, 2 x Blaufränkisch, a rosé and a dessert Ruster Ausbruch (Welschriesling).
So, good food and a chance to try some matching Austrian Wines! ( Tickets£70 pp)
