Har mony: “The Tuesday Tasting” Hakkasan New York Wine

Wine
Harmony: “The Tuesday Tasting”
Every week, Hakkasan’s wine team conducts a dedicated tasting session,
trying out new wines with at least four different dishes from the menu. If
a wine does not work with one dish, even if it is great with the others, it
does not make the list.
All our wines, with the exception of the fine vintages on pages 10 & 11,
are continually tasted as the vintages change to ensure that they
complement our cuisine.
