Little Neck Clam, Parsley, Garlic & Lemon Cream
Sommelier’s tip
Chablis Premier Cru Fourchaume
This Chablis Premier Cru Fourchaume from the right bank of the River Serein, with its very aromatic bouquet, combines notes of fruit and white blossom, and is very elegant in the mouth, offering power and a rounded taste. Its minerality brings out the flavor of the clams and marries perfectly with the lemon and garlic. This unusual combination of a Chablis Premier Cru with an everyday dish dressed up by the shellfish. Arvid Rosengren, best Sommelier in the World 2016, advises allowing the wine to breathe before serving, to ensure it is perfectly aerated.

Ryan Hardy is the chef at the Italian-style contemporary eatery Pasquale Jones in New York. The crispy based pizza he serves in his restaurant combines the marine hints of clam with velvety cream and vibrant broccoli. And a Chablis Premier Cru from the Fourchaume Climat sets it off fabulously!
