Head chef Antonio Tardi invites one-star chef Andrea Gabin to create a wine gala together. Topped with the aroma of Alba truffles and Barolo wines.
menu:
*truffle crusted scallops served with veal sweetbreads and "scorzanera"
Ingredients went well together. Can't taste the veal though. Probably because it was a bit over prepared: cooked so many different ways before served so you can't taste the original flavor any more. Though scallops and truffles went OK together.
pairing wine: casa langhe favorita doc., gagliardo 2006
grape type: Favorita
Nice golden amber color. A bit too oaky drinking alone. With food brings out some rose and sandalwood aroma, quite interesting.
