Price per person: CHF 195 (tasting, meal, mineral and coffee). Please note that the normal price for this evening should be CHF 240.00 - As an alfavin.ch customer, you will benefit from this special price of CHF 195.00 for bookings made before 25 April.

Eat Me offers a selection of dishes inspired by international recipes on small plates. They are all ‘gourmet souvenirs’ gathered from travels around the world. From the most humble ‘street food’ to the most elaborate contemporary gastronomy, the menu has been created to take us on a journey to discover these flavours from elsewhere for the duration of a meal.

Master Class - Verticale Nelin

Nelin is celebrating its 25th anniversary! To celebrate this anniversary, we're organising a Master Class with René Barbier Jr.

In a group of 14 people maximum, come and listen to the history of this wine and its development over time.

Through a vertical tasting of several vintages (2011-2014-2016-2019-2021), you will discover the full typicity of this wine and understand the richness of its terroir.

And as a gift, you'll receive a bottle of Nelin 2020 at the end of the tasting.

An anniversary not to be missed!

In anticipation of the game season and its classic dishes, we invite you to a tasting of a dozen wines that will go very well with your meals.

For each wine, we will also suggest some ideas of game dishes.
