" from the houses of J de Telmont and Comtes de Dampierre "

Our latest event in Abu Dhabi was a very special one, with Champagne served throughout the entire dinner. The Champagnes were new to the UAE coming from the houses of J de Telmont and Comtes de Dampierre.

The award-winning Catch restaurant is situated within the Nation Riviera Beach Club on Abu Dhabi's Corniche. It features gourmet seafood fusion cuisine using the freshest seasonal ingredients.

Chef Remon Nabil had prepared a wonderful menu for our event. The courses were complemented by five different Champagnes from the two houses, each served in different glass styles.
