Delicate seafood canapes were served with Billecart-Salmon Champagne as guests were welcomed by their hosts. Cauliflower carabineros and foie gras with smoked eel were paired with Pavillon Blanc Du Château Margaux 2016 and Pavillon Rouge Du Château Margaux 2010 respectively. Kiwami striploin was served with Jerusalem artichokes and enhanced with Château Margaux 2003 And Château Margaux 2000, the latter of which has been awarded 100 by Parker in the Wine Advocate.
