  September 19, 2018 - Lunch at Nicolas with Alex H (Nicolas Restaurant, Teck Lim Street, Singapore): Probably the most interesting and enjoyable wine we had today, this had a beautiful nose, full of florals and spice, sweet red cherries and strawberries - all very perfumed - and then a waft of mature secondary notes, with meat and earth bringing up the rear. A lovely expression of Gevrey. The palate was lovely to drink as well. Neither the deepest nor strongest wine, but this was just so charming, with nicely full flavours of cherries and sweet red berries still going strong, and little bits of spice and meat on the midpalate and beyond. A very sound, nicely balanced wine even at its age. Quite a marvel given the vintage and relative obscurity of the winemaker. I enjoyed this.
