5/17 🇦🇺 Australian Wines 🍷 Dinner at Tokyo American Club 💯

¥18,980¥24,980

Take a journey across the vast Australian continent through the enjoyment of wine and food!
The journey will start in the Margaret River Region, surrounded by the Indian Ocean and Southern Ocean, a place of epic beauty and wines. We will then travel for several thousands of kilometers to the Yarra Valley, a historical region with some of the longest continuously operating wineries outside of Europe.
Then, we go across the Bass Straight to the Cradle Coast of Northern Tasmania, Australia’s coolest and most rugged wine region, to try the most fashionable wine at the moment, Tasmanian Pinot Noir.
To the north, we will try wines grown at the highest altitude in Australia. Orange New South Wales, to enjoy a Modern take on Zinfandel.

Finally, to cap off a wonderful evening, we go to the historical heartland of Australian winemaking, the warm climate of the Barossa Valley, famed for its red soil and world-famous Shiraz.

Description

The Australian Wines and Food Pairing

Aperitif: Bread Roll with Extra Virgin Olive Oil

2024 Skuttlebutt Muscat Blanc á Petit Grains, Margaret River wine, Western Australia

The palate has a vibrant spritz with flavours of citrus, lemonade, and lime. Balanced by the fresh cleansing acidity, which provides freshness and length. Frizzante wine.

~

Amuse: Green Gazpacho, soft smoked scallop

2022 Mac Forbes Yarra Valley: Chardonnay

It has a touch more weight on the palate than previous years, medium bodied with high acidity, crunchy fruits, a little savory sourdough lees quality, and a touch of flinty reduction. A quick decant will allow this to open up in the glass. 

~

Starter: Niigata Jidori Chicken and Pork Terrine, Spiced Baba Ghanoush, Jamon Serran & Crispy Salad

2024 Ghost Rock Pinot Noir,  Cradle Coast Tasmania

Elegant, soft, dark fruit, spices, touches of turned earth, gravelly tannin profile, dried herbs, liquorice, touches of sea spray, and some smokiness generally.

Quite a good deal of concentration and richness with a stretch of flavour and spice inherent.

Rated: 92 Points

~

Main: Slow-Braised Red Wine Tomato Beef, Prune and Herb Couscous

Bentley Farm, The Stray, 65% Grenache, 35% Shiraz, Borossa Valley

With each variety separately fermented and matured, The Stray displays the level of aromatic and flavour complexity you would expect from a blend of such diverse varietals.

~

Dessert: Chocolate Mud Cake with Whipped Cream

Zinfandel, Orange, New South Wales

Single vineyard, the fruit was handpicked, selected, and hand sorted at harvest. 100% of the grapes were destemmed. basket pressed and delivered straight to 100% French oak barrels. Bottled September 2018

Streamer Coffee or Organic tea

“I believe we now have one of the strongest portfolios of New World wines in Japan. Our suppliers are rising stars in their industries with a focus on quality rather than mass appeal or the “loudness’ of the brand.”

The majority of our suppliers practice dry, sustainable farming, and many are certified organic.
