    Salon des Collections

    Our cellar holds one of the world’s most spectacular wine collections, including 158 vintage bottles of Château d’Yquem dating to 1854 (1854–2003) and 21 bottles of Château Lafite Rothschild dating to 1799 (1799–1899). Alessandro will find the perfect wines to accompany your menu.

Wine, the nectar that bonds people since the dawn of history, has always been my reason for travelling and exploring the world. Today, I share with our guests the gems of the Mediterranean coast, certainly with an Italian accent.
