Jérôme Blin Champagne And Other Friends
I’m hosting an Australian first: a dinner celebrating the newly landed, exclusively imported Champagnes of Jérôme Blin, poured together for the first time in Australia.
We’re hosting a special dinner to celebrate the arrival of Bendito Destino’s second shipment of wines.
Terry Kandylis, former head sommelier at 67 Pall Mall and Caprice Holdings, was en route to the Canary Islands when a stop in Ribera del Duero changed everything. He discovered high-altitude old vineyards (some as high as 925m) being overlooked and began rescuing them, launching Bendito Destino. Now, just a few vintages in, his wines are earning serious acclaim, 96 points from Jamie Goode, and 97 from Decanter for his first vintage!
At Jishan Garden, pairing 11 wines with their signature modern Chinese cuisine. Two of the wines alone retail at $325, but the full experience is just $225 per person.
