Vigneron has revamped its menu, and here are all the details
Just a few months after its successful relaunch, Vigneron, located in the Roma neighborhood, is evolving into a new format inspired by international wine bar trends, offering its visitors two different ways to experience wine culture.
Originally conceived as a showroom for Vinos Amparo, Vigneron's evolution has led it to transform into a gastro-wine bar inspired by iconic places like Parcelles, La Buvette, and Noble Rot. Today, it presents a pre-dining format featuring a six-course menu created by chef Aram Abisahi, known for his culinary approach that combines French techniques with the flavors of northern Mexico, and who promises to surprise diners with this new format.
This menu costs $1,800 MXN, and can be enjoyed with a wine pairing specially designed for the occasion (at an extra cost of $1,000 or $2,000 MXN) or without it, according to the diner's preference, who can reserve the 90-minute experience at two different times.
The dishes that make up the new menu are:
- Amuse-bouche: crispy polenta, crab roll and caviar.
- Entrée: roasted beets, dill and jocoque.
- First course: pork belly, confit garlic puree and honey.
- Second course: Kampachi aguachile, avocado and papalo.
- Third course: fagottini with tiger shrimp mousseline, green broad beans and Boullabaisse emulsion.
- Fourth course: aged lamb ribs, Chiapas coffee jus and mint tamale.
- Pre-dessert: granita, shiso and yuzu.
- Dessert: panna cotta, thyme and chamomile oil.
“We consider ourselves ambassadors of the winemakers and want to bring their message to the glass. We are proud to serve each of the wines included, selected with an open mind and boundless curiosity. We seek the clear representation of the terroir and the personalities of the winemakers, a combination that is not easily achieved, but once tasted, the world is transformed,” says Mario Luna, Vigneron sommelier.
The Prefix experience will take place in the intimacy of the lounge, a welcoming space that can accommodate up to eight people, designed to ensure personalized attention. Meanwhile, the terrace will retain its characteristically relaxed atmosphere, where diners can enjoy a selection of over 350 wine labels available by the glass through the Coravin system, along with a lighter menu designed to complement the wine experience.
This opens up the possibility of tasting very special wines at any time—wines that, whether due to their origin, price, or availability in Mexico, would be very difficult to access on a daily basis. In this way, Vigneron caters to both wine enthusiasts seeking a more complete experience and those looking for a more casual evening or a particular wine.
“We seek the clear representation of the terroir and the personalities of the producers, a combination that is not easily achieved, but once tasted, the world ceases to be itself,” - Mario Luna, sommelier at Vigneron.
