Foie Gras Soup with Lentil Gnocchi and Balsamic Onions

2007 Alex Gambal Chambolle Musigny Les Charmes 1er Cru

Winemaker: Alex Gambal

Pairing: Foie Gras Soup with Lentil Gnocchi and Balsamic Onions

"Earth, color, red things," are the words Pierre Gagnaire uses to describe the Hermès perfume that inspired his dish, Parfums de Terre. This marvelous soup is one of the dish's seven components. Both the foie gras that enriches the broth and the lentil gnocchi are earthy; the lightly pickled onion wedges add brightness and tang, not to mention a hint of color.
