The wine of the southwest at Le Diamant Bleu brunch

In the enchanting world of Parisian Sunday brunchesLe Diamant Bleu stands out not only for its exceptional setting on the Seine, but also for its refined wine selection. Today, let’s dive into the discovery of an oenological treasure that enhances our all-you-can-eat brunch in gourmet Paris: le Monbazillac 2020, an exceptional wine from southwestern France.

Summary

An exceptional terroir at the gates of Bordeaux at the Diamant Bleu table

Monbazillac, often unknown to the uninitiated, is a sweet wine produced in the southwestern region, close to Bordeaux. This wine estate benefits from a special microclimate where morning mists promote the development of “botrytis cinerea”, a noble fungus that concentrates the sugars in the grapes.

Grown on the sunny slopes overlooking the left bank of the Dordogne, this wine is the result of ancestral know-how, where the winemaker has a deep respect for nature and its cycles. The estate that produces our 2020 Monbazillac is committed to an environmentally friendly approach, preserving the authenticity of the terroir and the exceptional quality of the grapes.

Taste characteristics: between sweetness and freshness

This Monbazillac 2020 stands out for its golden color with amber highlights that captivates the eye as soon as it is poured into a glass. On the nose, it reveals a complex aromatic bouquet with notes of candied fruit, acacia honey, and white flowers.

Contrary to popular belief, this wine is not overly sweet on the palate. Its beautiful acidity gives it a remarkable freshness that perfectly balances its natural sweetness. It offers aromas of exotic fruits, candied apricot, and a subtle touch of gingerbread that lingers on the finish.

This wine is neither red nor completely white, but is a sweet wine with a strong personality, ideal for those who want to discover new taste sensations during a festive meal.

Perfect pairings with our gourmet brunch

The art of brunching reaches its peak when food and wine are in perfect harmony. Our Monbazillac 2020 is the perfect companion for many of the dishes served at our Sunday brunch.

With starters and savory dishes

This sweet wine may surprise you with its ability to accompany savory dishes :

  • It enhances our fresh marinated salmon workshop, creating a delicious contrast between the sweetness of the wine and the salty notes of the dish.
  • It pairs wonderfully with our mature cheese buffet, particularly with brie, camembert, and goat cheese.
  • It brings a new dimension to our small oval tomatoes and mozzarella balls with pesto sauce, where its sweetness contrasts with the acidity of the vegetables.

For those who enjoy original taste experiences, try it with our egg workshop, especially the herb omelet, for a surprising harmony.

With desserts and sweets

It is naturally with our selection of desserts that this Monbazillac expresses its full splendor:

  • It divinely accompanies our chocolate mousse verrine, creating a symphony of flavors where the cocoa notes meet the honeyed aromas of the wine.
  • It enhances our seasonal tarts, where its balance between acidity and sweetness echoes the flavors of the dessert.
  • It pairs perfectly with our seasonal fruit platter, especially when it includes apples and exotic fruits.

A refined alternative to traditional brunch drinks

While coffee, tea, and fruit juices remain the classic staples of any self-respecting brunch, our 2020 Monbazillac offers an elegant alternative for epicureans in search of new experiences.

Unlike the sparkling wines often served at brunch, such as champagne or Prosecco, this sweet wine adds a more contemplative dimension to your tasting experience. It encourages sharing and conversation, transforming your simple Sunday lunch into a true tasting experience.

Monbazillac: a wine of tradition and innovation

The strength of this winery lies in its ability to combine respect for tradition with innovation. The particularly successful 2020 vintage is a testament to the expertise of a house that has weathered climatic challenges to produce an exceptional wine.

Far from the clichés that confine sweet wines to foie gras or desserts, our Monbazillac 2020 is a versatile wine that can accompany an entire festive meal, such as our gourmet brunch.
