One night, over a few B.L.T. Dogs and a magnum of Domaine Leflaive Batard-Montrachet 1986, he starts eyeing the vertical of Henri Jayer ... After a bit of discussion, he decides to go with Vosne Romnee Cros Parantoux 1985, a steal at $5,000. This was the first, and at this point in my life, the only time I've ever had this wine. To say the wine was magical would be an understatement, and Crif Dogs have never tasted the same...

How about some Crif Dogs with your vintage Burgundy?
Patrick Cappiello, a former sommelier at Veritas Restaurant on East 20th Street, shared a story with Eater yesterday about a bar regular — a hedge fund manager — who loved Crif Dogs. And they'd order them in for this guest.

I had no idea what any of this meant until about halfway through the paragraph, and I'm pretty okay with that.
ReplyDeleteSimilar to eccelstone tossing about $50,000.00 on a champagne and a bag of chips.

Sounds about right. A luxuriance wine for a superfluous hot dog.
ReplyDeleteBesides, if one pairs Domaine Leflaive Batard-Montrachet 1986 with your street 'dog, that 'dog will have never tasted the same. Anything for the mindless sheeple.
'85 may have been the best bordeaux years ever. I imagine it would change the taste of whatever you eat with it. If he enjoys nice wine, and has the means to spend on it, I see no problem.
ReplyDelete"he starts eyeing the vertical of Henri Jayer"
ReplyDeleteWish someone would eye my vertical every once in awhile.
