A 1998 Tokaji, the year we met, called for something equally special: homemade foie gras torchon. Three days, a bamboo sushi mat, a pair of tweezers and one very good bottle of wine later, Thanksgiving suddenly felt rather luxurious.

Gödöllő-style chicken is a beloved Hungarian classic, featuring juicy roasted chicken filled with a rich stuffing of mushrooms, chicken liver, bacon, herbs, and bread. We paired ours with a Premier Cru Pouilly-Fuissé from Burgundy, whose freshness, minerality, and elegant Chardonnay character beautifully complemented the dish's rich, savoury flavours.
