FROM PIEDMONT TO MS.JIGGER: CHEF DANILO'S LOVE FOR TRUFFLES
For Head Chef Danilo Aiassa, truffles are more than just a prized ingredient. Growing up in Piedmont, one of Italy's most celebrated truffle regions, he developed a deep appreciation for their rich, earthy flavours. With experience in three-Michelin-starred kitchens in Italy, Chef Danilo brings his culinary roots to this special dinner, creating a menu that highlights the beauty of seasonal ingredients and traditional Italian cooking, with Burgundy wines to complement each course.
A BURGUNDY STORY WORTH UNCORKING
Founded in 2000 by Japanese oenologist Koji Nakada and Korean producer Jae Hwa Park, Maison Lou Dumont has earned recognition for its distinctive approach to French winemaking. Based in the renowned village of Gevrey-Chambertin, the house combines Burgundian traditions with an Asian philosophy rooted in respect for nature and craftsmanship.
The spirit of the winery is captured in the kanji 天地人 (Sky, Earth and Man) found on every bottle, representing the harmony between the land, the seasons and the people behind each vintage. With a focus on old vines and minimal intervention, its collection expresses the unique character of Burgundy's vineyards, making each glass an exploration of the region.
