Community Tasting Note

Tuesday, July 19, 2011 - Dim Sum Club goes Japanese (Kingyo, Marina Square): This was an extremely impressive vintage. Still going strong at age 15, it had a rich, layered bouquet with notes of cream, fleshy white fruit, some flowers and a whiff of smoky mineral. Nice stuff, somewhat straddling Puligny and Meursault. The palate had tons of depth for a village, with lovely fresh acidity reflecting the vintage running through rich flavours of white fruit, cream and some savoury nutty notes which wound their way into a long, minerally end. The wine was at a very nice place now. It may lack the breadth and complexity of a good 1er Cru, but this was about as good as village one could wish for. It certainly did the wine's cause no harm either that it went wonderfully well with a range of fatty-fish sushi.
