Une belle brochette de Sommeliers
avec de belles bouteilles de Bordeaux
Souvenir from June 2018. I recently retrieved this picture from my time working at Goldin as Wine Quality Control Director and corporate Sommelier, where I was responsible for stock management and wine service for all the company's events and dinners.
Back then, the Goldin Tower comprised a few restaurants, including the acclaimed French (fusion) restaurant called "Le Pan", where Lauri worked for a while as Wine Director (Head Sommelier and Wine Buyer), and a renowned Chinese restaurant called "Dynasty Garden" where Jameson worked also for a little while, also as Wine Director (Head Sommelier and Wine Buyer).
We occasionally joined forces and helped each other for events that required manpower to serve the wine, usually when we had VVIPs at the tables, as seen in this picture from a particular dinner in June 2018.
The four of us formed "Une belle brochette de Sommeliers" alongside some of the finest sommeliers in Hong Kong at the time.

As you can see in this picture, these were good times when we opened fantastic bottles every day!
It is a bit difficult to see them clearly in this picture, but that night we served (from left):
- Chateau Gruaud Larose Saint-Julien 2000
- Chateau Le Bon Pasteur Pomerol 1982
- Chateau Ducru Beaucaillou Saint-Julien 1990
- Chateau Angelus Saint-Emilion 1990
- Chateau d'Yquem Sauternes 2007
Sweet memory!
Cheers! Santé!
