Two big things to shout out about and a wonderful fact. Firstly, the food of new @soulbarandbistro chef Gavin Doyle is gastronomical. The food pairings he created for today's @ghmummnz tasting were divine. He's Irish too. So happy Paddy's Day for tomorrow. Now for the wonderful fact. Have you ever wondered about the red sash on @ghmummnz ? The red sash is the symbol of Napoleon's #legiondhonneur and first decorated a bottle of #mummcelebration #cordonrouge in 1827. Napoleon was a fan of #champagne and this red sash has even been replicated on bottle art in #tintin comics. Thirdly, today for @goodmagazinenz I attended a very special tasting of Mumm Cuvée R. Laloli Vintage 2002 with chef de caves #didiermariotti Only 20 cases of this beautiful champagne are available in #newzealand $390 a bottle and worth every drop.
