Wine 2 - Chapel Down Pinot Blanc 2005 75clElegant wine, grapey and vinous, subtle and slightly peppery on the palate. This wine is maturing well. StarterPan fried mackerel, watercress, mustard sauce OR Tomato & blue vinney tart, walnut tart (V) Wine 3 - Primrose Hill Lamberhurst Estate Bacchus 2007England's answer to Sauvignon Blanc really benefits from some bottle age at this level, and this Bacchus has blosomed beautifully over the last few months. Off dry in style, it is full of elderflower and Cox's apple flavours. Main CourseSlow roasted Hampshire free range pork belly, parsnip & black pudding hash, bramley apple sauce & cider gravy OR Pearl barley risotto, foraged New Forest mushrooms, shaved old Winchester, Pratt's rapeseed oil Wine 4 - Primrose Hill Tenterden Estate Rose 2007 75clDeep vivid cherry-pink in colour.
