Daniel Crespi is the restaurateur who won’t stop reinventing. In an old-town hotel, he has spent years delighting fellow gourmands with, among other venues, meat havens Djuret and lauded Omakase Köttslöjd; Tweed, where crafted cocktails and a cigar collection match the heavy leather couches; and now wine lounge The Burgundy. Over the years, Crespi has accumulated more than 2,800 wine references, many of them from Piedmont, Burgundy and Champagne.
Prices are attractive and the finer the wine, the lower the mark-up. Top wines, such as Marc Colin’s St-Aubin 1er Cru En Remilly 1999 or Giacomo Conterno’s Monfortino Barolo 2002 in magnum, show up by the glass. Hedonistically delicious dishes including house-cured charcuterie, game meats and the best burger in town are on the menu. ‘Today I would suggest Cà d’Morissio, Barolo Riserva 2003 from Giuseppe Mascarello with our tartar calabra and thrice-fried fries,’ says Crespi temptingly. Tomorrow, he will have thought up something else.
