Hakkasan Wine
Harmony: “The Tuesday Tasting” Every week, Hakkasan’s wine team conducts a dedicated tasting session, trying out new wines with at least four different dishes from the menu: if a wine does not work with one dish – even if it is great with the others – it does not make the list. All our wines (with the exception of the fine vintages on pages 12 -13) are continually tasted as the vintages change, to ensure that they complement our cuisine. Christine Parkinson, Group Wine Buyer Gabor Foth, Head Sommelier
