Lunch at Toronto’s Cluny Bistro with the charmingly effusive Jean-Remy Rapeneau.

 

Jean-Remy Rapeneau’s family’s Victoire Brut Prestige has been available in the Ontario market for nigh on a decade. A bit of a sleeper hit at the Good Food Revolution offices, this champagne represents some of the best value that we have ever seen from Champagne, not a region usually known for its bargains. We shall be reviewing this amazingly accessible ($39.75!) Champagne in next week’s issue of GFR.

We sat down with the Gallically flamboyant Jean-Remy for a lunch at Toronto’s Cluny Bistro, accompanied by a few glasses of Victoire Brut Prestige, naturally. It worked like a charm with the Seafood Shore Lunch of battered whitefish, shrimp, and frites.
