Handpicked Wine Dinner
Hello

Handpicked Wine Dinner at The Mayflower, Dusit Thani Bangkok

This review takes you to a special Handpicked Wine Dinner held at The Mayflower, a Chinese restaurant at the Dusit Thani Bangkok Hotel. The event was a collaboration with Handpicked Wines and featured only one dinner on one day.

Peter Dillon, the winemaker who oversees and controls the production of Handpicked Wines, and Piyapong Kanchanathanan, Managing Director of Handpicked Wines (Thailand) Limited, were both present at the event.

Let's join the event together.

For this meal, we will be tasting a total of 6 wines from Handpicked Wine.


Welcome with Handpicked Regional Selections NV Prosecco, Veneto, Italy, a sparkling wine with soft bubbles and a refreshing aroma from Italy.


Pair it with a selection of Chinese-style canapés, bursting with flavor and aroma.

The classic Chinese atmosphere of the Chinese restaurant The Mayflower


‘Delicate Avocado Salad’

This salad features a creamy avocado dressing that coats the avocado, grilled shrimp, scallops, and calamari. The lemon avocado sauce adds a light and refreshing touch to the dish.


Handpicked Regional Selections, Yarra Valley, Victoria, Australia, Chardonnay 2015
This chilled Chardonnay pairs perfectly with a refreshing salad, offering a harmonious balance with its full-bodied flavor.


‘White Eggs Soup with Shimeji Mushroom’
A classic Chinese-style soup with a light and well-rounded flavor, enhanced by the texture of shimeji mushrooms and the visual appeal of salmon roe, adding a touch of color to this Chinese-style soup.


Chili Crab

This dish features large, succulent crab claws, expertly deshelled for your convenience. The sauce boasts a delightful balance of sweet and spicy notes, showcasing the culinary prowess of Singapore. The dish is a testament to the region's rich culinary heritage and offers a truly memorable dining experience.


Handpicked Regional Selections, Clare Valley, South Australia, Riesling 2012
This Riesling, with its pronounced aromas and flavors, is a compelling choice to complement the bold flavors of this crab dish. Its crisp acidity cuts through the richness of the crab, while its fruity notes enhance the dish's overall complexity.


Peking Duck in Mayflower Style
Crispy Peking duck skin drizzled with a rich, aromatic sauce, boasting distinct flavors, served with vegetables and wrapped in a chewy, thick-yet-tender pancake. Each bite is a perfect harmony of textures and tastes.


Handpicked Collection, Central Otago, New Zealand, Pinot Noir 2012
For Ronaldo, poultry dishes paired with Pinot Noir remain a perfect choice.


The rich and flavorful Peking duck sauce requires a pause before taking a sip of wine to allow the flavors to harmonize.


For the main course, there were two options to choose from, but Ronaldo tasted both.

Grilled Rack of Lamb

Exquisitely presented rack of lamb, boasting tender, flavorful meat with minimal gamey aroma. The accompanying Chinese-style peppercorn sauce, while not overly thick, is predominantly salty.

Braised Beef Cheek

Tender and flavorful braised beef cheek, infused with a rich and savory sauce.


Handpicked Signature 1, Coonawarra, South Australia, Cabernet Sauvignon 2010
Paired with a full-bodied Cabernet Sauvignon, Handpicked Signature 1, the star of the show. The wine's rich aromas and full body complement the main course perfectly. This limited-edition wine is no longer in production, making it a rare find for enthusiasts.


‘Mango Pudding and Banana Ball topping’
The dessert concludes with a rich mango pudding that delivers a distinct mango flavor, accompanied by crispy-coated banana balls with a chewy interior.


Handpicked Regional Selections, Moscato d'Asti, Piemonte, Italy 2015
Paired with a sweet Moscato wine from Italy.

Note: The original text is empty, so the translation is also empty.

This special meal was attended by a full house of guests, creating a warm and friendly atmosphere. Peter and Piyapong personally greeted the guests and provided detailed information about the wine being served. Their explanations were so clear and engaging that guests could easily visualize and understand the wine's characteristics as they sipped it.


Before leaving, they didn't forget to order a hand-picked wine and have Peter sign the label.


Naturally, Ronaldo did not miss the opportunity to ask for an autograph.

This meal showcased the diverse range of Handpicked Wines that can complement a variety of dishes, from light to full-bodied flavors, and even dessert. The high-quality wines, carefully selected by Handpicked Wine (Thailand), were presented under the single name Handpicked Wine.

Thank you very much.
Ronaldo
