DOMAINE
Marchand-Tawse
|
with Pascal
Marchand, featuring some back
vintages & preview of 2016s
|
|

The documentary film “Grand Cru”
follows Pascal Marchand as an aspiring poet from Montreal
who arrived in the mythical land of Burgundy to work the
harvest at age 21. Enchanted by the region, he
settled there and embarked on an unlikely path to winemaking
stardom. Now over 30 years later, he is renowned as an
artist and innovator, finding his inspiration in the ancient
techniques of the Cistercian monks who meticulously studied
and refined Burgundy's winemaking in the middle ages.
One can also say that the name Pascal Marchand is
synonymous with the resurrection of Domaine Comte Armand in
the 1990s. After restoring the domaine’s reputation to an
all-time high, he struck out on his own to make Burgundy
wines with the inception of his domaine/micro-négoce now
known as MARCHAND-TAWSE.
Blessed with an acute instinct for the region’s unique
terroirs as well as being an intelligent, sensitive
cellar-master, Pascal regularly obtains the most optimal and
purest expression with ease and panache.
As one of the earliest proponents of organic/biodynamic
farming in Burgundy, Pascal began practicing organic
viticulture in the mid-80s at Domaine Comte Armand. His
reputation earned him many friends who own prestigious
vineyards around Burgundy and from whom now he sources his
fruits to augment the domaine’s vineyards.
Today, Marchand continues to dedicate most of his time to
what he considers to be the most important aspect of the
production of great wines: working the vineyard. With the
recent acquisition of Domaine Maume in Gevrey-Chambertin
plus other choice parcels, Marchand-Tawse works with a much
higher proportion of owned vineyards.
Those who follow Marchand’s wines will vouch that he has
successfully crafted terroir wines that evolve gracefully.
Thanks to meticulous vineyard work, he can vinify gently
(important to obtain aromatics) and nonetheless obtain long,
complex flavours. As expressive as the wines may be, they
always carry a certain je-ne-sais-quoi elegance and the
gorgeous perfume every Burgundy lover seeks.
We are thrilled to welcome Pascal back in Singapore this
May. Join us in this private dinner as we savour his
choicest terroirs and which will include a few recent
vintages. We will also preview a few pre-release 2016s so we
can see why so many are so excited about the vintage. This
will be an intimate time with the winemaker to learn and
explore the nuances of Burgundy with Chef Nicolas Joanny’s
ever excellent and sensitive cuisine on the dinner table.
As the seating is quite limited, we hope you will RSVP soon.
We greatly look forward to your company on this special
occasion.
Yours,
Henry H.

out of Nuits Saint-Georges, their wines are well
worth investigating as I found good quality from

Winemaker Pascal Marchand possesses post-modern
abilities to coax immense richness from out of the
basic appellations in Burgundy.

NICOLAS
LE RESTAURANT

This stalwart fine French restaurant was founded
in 2007 by Chef Nicolas Joanny. Originally from
the south of France, Chef Nicolas was raised in a
family of food lovers, where everything is made in
house, from the garden to charcuterie.
As a teenager Nicolas
graduated from the renowned Culinary Institute in
Burgundy, Château Chinon, at the age of 17. During
the second year of his study, he also attended
training in prestigious Michelin-starred
establishments. He started his career in a 2-star
restaurant, “La Barbacane Restaurant”, in
Southwest of France, working under the charismatic
Chef Michel Del Burgo. After 2 years, he moved to
Belgium where he worked for the 1-star restaurant
“La Cusine Des Anges”. Like many young aspiring
chefs, Nicolas moved to the city of Paris where he
worked in prestigious restaurants such as
Taillevent (3-star) and Le Vivarois (2-star).
Thereafter he became one of the private chefs of
the ex-French Prime Minister, Mr. Alain Juppe. By
1997, Nicolas went to Italy to work for the 2-star
chef Antony Genovese “The Palazzo Sasso” at a
newly opened boutique hotel in southern Italy.
Knowing that the time was right to become a Chef
de Cuisine and with his interest in Asia, Nicolas
moved to “The Duxton Hotel” in Singapore. He left
to open his eponymous Nicolas Le Restaurant
in the heart of Chinatown on Keong Saik Road in
2007, before moving to Teck Lim Road in 2012.
Nicolas’ cuisine is traditionally French with
great usage of products from France and Japan. He
respects the natural flavors of each ingredient
that he uses to create traditional seasonally
changing French menus.
