The Grand Truffle & Bordeaux Gala
"To share a legendary bottle is to pass down the sacred, silent history of the earth to a select few."
A Gastronomic Retrospective
This autumn, Roisie opens its legendary 17th-century private chambers for an exclusive dinner of historic significance. In partnership with esteemed châteaux, our grand chef de cuisine presents a custom-curated pairing flight featuring ten legendary library wines alongside fresh Périgord black truffles.
Crafted Beyond Measures
Every aspect of this evening has been planned over six months to celebrate the harmonic union of soil and gastronomy. Through five core courses, we showcase ingredients at their peak molecular maturity.
A Journey Through Soil & Time
Roisie's cellar holds treasures that remain quiet for generations. For one single night, our head sommelier breaks the wax seals of ten legendary library vintages to accompany a bespoke five-course black truffle menu. This is not simply dinner—it is a physical experience that explores the limits of French classical culinary geometry.
Guests will gather in the Salon d’Or under original stone arches dating back to the 17th century. Illuminated entirely by flickering candlelight, the room will be framed by authentic tapestries and gold gilding, setting a tranquil and timeless scene for historic emotion.
"Gastronomy is the only art form that integrates all five human senses. To taste a hundred-year-old vintage alongside fresh Périgord truffles is to capture the ephemeral beauty of our history."
— Chef Bernard Pacaud
Each course features a strict, classical technique where our brigade highlights the raw integrity of seasonal ingredients, presenting a dining dynamic found nowhere else in the world.
