HOLODECK KITCHEN & RESTAURANT

Genoten van de gastvrijheid van de dames die ons hebben laten proeven in het proeflokaal en in de wijnbar rond lunchtijd.

We waren met kleine kinderen, vooraf gecheckt of dit niet als storend werd gezien voor andere gasten, maar ze waren zeer welkom. Ideaal dat er een klein speelhoekje in het proeflokaal is zodat wij rustig alle wijnen konden proeven.

Geweldige wijnen, perfect naar onze smaak. Diverse wijnen zijn ook prijswinnaar, dus ook naar de smaak van die van anderen.

We kosten diverse dozen en losse flessen en gaan er thuis in Nederland van nagenieten.

Went for a wine tasting. Vincent was fantastic. Very knowledgeable and generous with his time. As we arrived close to closing time he even patiently stayed late to allow us finishing our tasting. Highly recommended.

We had a fantastic experience at the Holodeck restaurant at Château de Chambert, we weren’t sure what to expect as I think the restaurant is fairly new and I hadn’t seen many photos of the food or information on the menu but we followed their lead on arrival.

We arrived 20 minutes early for our dinner reservation, and drove up to the chateau where the views of the vineyard were spectacular. We met a lovely lady in the tasting room who let us try some wines. We had a run through of the chateau and the plans for the future. We then took a glass of our chosen wine to the terrace and enjoyed the view.

We were greeted by our fantastic host who offered us sparkling Malbec and the start of our menu on the terrace.

After our canapés we moved into the restaurant to choose our wine and to be made comfortable, the restaurant is excuisically decorated with beautiful ambient lighting and open kitchen.

The chef showed exceptional skill with a balanced menu of fresh ingredients.

We chose the smaller menu but were pleasantly surprised, there were countless high quality ingredients and we lost track of how many courses we had.

The Asian citrus langoustine dish was my husbands favourite and mine was the Mediterranean John Dory dish, but every course was brilliantly executed.

We were 2 of 10 diners, it made for a very special evening, the service was superb, even though our waiter sommelier did not speak much English and our French isn’t great, he did a fantastic job of simplifying the French to explain the dishes.

Everything was perfect and timed to perfection, we did not want to leave! Highly recommend to any foodies visiting the area. We can’t wait to come back again. Thank you!

Not knowing all that much about wine but enthousiastic to learn more we did the guided tour last monday (15/7/2024) and spent about 1,5 hours listening to Vincent (native English speaker) and asking all the questions we had at the time about wine making, tasting, keeping it in a cellar etc etc. The tour included tasting some wines accompanied by some interesting factoids for a wine-noob like me. Thanks Vincent for sharing your knowledge and introducing us to the interesting ‘Bio Dynamic Wine’ -processes and its implementation at Chateau Chambert with its unique multiple terroirs.

This was one of the best tasting trips ever. Vincent was amazing, so informative and very easy going, none of our dumb questions perturbed him! Completely bilingual too, so my basic French was not needed.
