Next up on the menu is a real treat for rosé paramours. The Dom Pérignon Rosé Experience is centred around the Dom Pérignon Rosé Vintage 2006, one of the most expensive rosé champagnes in the world. Sit back and enjoy a regal dining experience in a private room, featuring an exclusive Dom Pérignon service ritual from the ceremonious opening of the bottle to the art of pouring a glass of bubbles, complete with Dom Pérignon trolleys and glasses. Boasting a versatility that puts an eccentric twist on its food pairings, the unique Rosé elevates already premium dishes such as Australian ocean octopus with kimchi mayo, seaweed panko, burnt leek purée and onion ash, into an even more upmarket repast.

Gracing your lunch table at the Antinori Family Wine Lunch are four exquisite wines from the Antinori family. A forerunner in the admirable art of winemaking for more than six centuries, each of these bottles presented by the 26th generation Antinori family embody the careful blend of tradition and innovation. One of the main leads in this event is none other than the 2017 Tignanello from Tuscany, one of Italy’s trademark wines, accompanying a scrumptious grilled stockyard beef Angus ribeye. Savoury and elegant on the nose, crushed violets lead the way for an intense palate of cassis, wild blackberries, perfumed black plums and quality Kirsch.

For the romantics out there, the 1971 Vintage Wine Dinner is an exhilarating time-traveling experience, serving rare bottles and seven 50-year-old vintage wines from the shores of France and Italy.

Swirl, sniff and sip from a glass of 1971 Misserey et Frére, Vosne-Romanée from Burgundy, France as you tunk into executive Chinese chef Mok Kit Keung’s iconic deep-fried boneless chicken wing filled with bird’s nest and fresh crab meat, or taste 1971 Borgogno, Barolo from Piedmont, Italy, matched with a grilled Australian prime Wagyu beef tenderloin.
