Château Penin Wine and Dinner Pairing Getaway

Indulge in a Luxurious Wine and Dine Experience with Lough Erne Resort and Château Penin

This November, immerse yourself in a delightful fusion of French flavours and Irish heritage at a unique wine and dinner pairing event. Join us on November 20, 2024, for an exquisite evening featuring premium wines from Château Penin, a prestigious producer from Bordeaux, France.

Guests will savour a five-course tasting menu infused with Irish flavours, thoughtfully crafted to complement five exceptional wines from this renowned wine region, all served in the Resort’s award-winning Catalina Restaurant. Antoine Carteyron, one of the managers at Château Penin, will guide you through the vineyard's winemaking philosophy while introducing each wine paired with the specially designed menu by Lough Erne Resort’s culinary team.

With a passion for Northern Ireland's produce, the culinary team has curated five delectable courses using seasonal, locally sourced, and traceable ingredients. The evening begins with a delightful Bluebell Farm Goats Cheese & Chive Pastry Bun, followed by Whiskey Cured Salmon. The main course features Seared Duck Breast served alongside roasted artichoke, candied hazelnut, sea buckthorn, and thyme jus. For dessert, enjoy a young buck blue cheese paired with dark chocolate ganache, concluding with a rich chocolate delice accompanied by maple and walnut ice cream.

These fresh flavours will perfectly complement Château Penin Vineyards’ critically acclaimed wines. Established in 1855, Château Penin is a family-run vineyard, renowned for its exceptional terroir located in the heart of Bordeaux, providing an ideal climate for optimal grape ripening. The vineyard practices sustainable techniques in both production and estate management.
