Description

For the ultimate in luxury for the true gourmand, try this whole duck fois gras and dessert wine pairing. Light poaching in a simple bouillon flavored with authentic Périgordian seasonings lets the rich subtleties and velvety texture of a whole duck liver come through. Gift includes 200g of Petrossian Whole Duck Fois Gras from Paris, and, from Peter Lehman of the Barossa, a 375ml bottle of Barossa Valley 2007 Botrytis Semillon dessert wine. The Semillon is a wine of remarkable intensity with superb weight of luscious honeyed fruit on the middle palate. This richness is beautifully counter-balanced by natural acidity and it finishes with a delightfully clean complexity. What a combination!
