We have always been admiring the nuanced wines from the Loire Valley. The whites at times elegant and crisp, then also deep and mineral, or with sweetness only found elsewhere in Germany. For the reds its Cabernet Franc, ranging from the casual bistro wine to wines that compete neck-to-neck with the most famous names from Bordeaux when mature.
There is a whole world of greatness out there to explore, but this time we will showcase the classics with recipes provided from the estates in the wine pairing.
The menu is priced at thb 2,500++. Individual tables can be booked with sit down at 7.30pm. Please call 02 656 1133 or email: info@riedelwinebarbkk.com
We love to work with individuals, who are in tune with their respective terroir. But of course some of these creative spirits always evolve, step by step, or as with Raul in leaps and bounds – such is their nature.
Born and raised in Bierzo, an area known for hilly valleys, and nearby Santiago de Compostela; this secluded region is loaded with soil rife with granite and slate, and is influenced by the Atlantic ocean. Raul creates several red wines from Mencia grape, which can be fragrant, delicate and fruity but also structured and tannic depending how it has been raised; there are camps that call it the “Pinot Noir of Spain”, while others are reminded of Cabernet Franc.
This fine entry-level is named Ultreia Saint Jacques. An easy to understand style by the whole-cluster wizard and Mencia specialist. The Decanter explains it was “fermented with natural yeast in old oak tanks using 100% stems and no temperature control. It undergoes malo in tank and then spends one year in old barrels. There’s no remontage or pigeage, and he works without sulphites.”
For us this vintage is less acidic as normal, and could blindly be guessed a floral Cotes du Rhone. Raul will visit Bangkok around 3rd and 4th November. Please contact us for planned events with him and Eulogio Pomares of Zarate.
“This is one of the best values from Bierzo and Spain, and a great introduction to Bierzo. It’s a more serious wine than what the wine was when it was first produced, fresh and elegant. It’s very reliable and a great value.” 93 points by Luis Gutierrez writing for Robert Parker.
The wine region of Baden includes swaths of vineyards adjacent to the picturesque Black Forest natural park. In addition, the warmest of Germany’s wine regions is also known for the volcanic Kaisterstuhl and the Markgraflerland in the triangle between Germany, Basel in Switzerland and Alsace in France.

We are excited to be co-hosting this great wine and food experience with the owners of Cookhouse at 9 and Jordan Cortes, a leading sommelier in Bangkok. Event takes place on Tuesday, May 22nd between 2-5pm.
The cozy atmosphere of the Cookhouse, normally a supper club, will lend itself for this cozy yet very well thought out excursion into the wine world. Am and Vee trained at Sühring and Mezzaluna, and the signature carries over in to their own cooking style.
Jordan is originally from Asturias, Northern Spain. He began his career at a very young age working in a wine bar in his home town where his interest in wine emerged. Later he honed his skills at various Michelin-starred restaurants and hotels in Spain, before moving to London where he joined L’Atelier de Joël Robuchon in West Street. Now he calls Bangkok his home and when not working, is seen eating out at the many venues belonging to his friends, or studying for the DipWSET in Hong Kong.
During the 3 hours Jordan will give participants an overview of food and wine pairing principles, drawing examples from the famous “Taste Buds and Molecules” book about “The Art and Science of Food, Wine, and Flavor” by Francois Chartier. He will explain how certain flavors, textures, and seasonings will react to a wine’s acid, tannin, fruit and alcohol. With the 15 different bite size dishes, ranging from vegetables, mushrooms, foie gras, oysters, cheese, poultry, meat, and sweets, we will try a Cremant, Grand Cru Champagne, Chablis, Rhone Syrah, as well as skin-contact Austrian white, and Jura Savagnin. In the latter stages, a Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon, sake and Amontillado sherry will make an appearance.
We look forward to seeing you later this week.
