Happy New Year! Foie Gras Now, Lentils Tomorrow
Foie gras is a once-a-year indulgence that demands intention, and the right wine. Its richness calls for contrast: sweetness, acidity, and structure. Classic pairings like Tokaji Aszú or Sauternes balance fat with honeyed intensity and sharp lift, turning excess into elegance. Dry whites or Champagne can work, but this is advanced play. Foie gras isn’t about restraint; it’s about choosing indulgence wisely. Happy New Year 🥂
