Saturday, September 15, 2012 - "Mr. & Mrs. White" Birthday Dinner (Private Room, Caprice Restaurant, Four Seasons Hotel, Two IFC, Hong Kong): Three bottles decanted 3 hours before serving. Colour is late autumnal busnished gold. Nose is…..oh, gosh!...white nougat and botrytis…..smoky caramel….white mushrooms. Palate is silky sweet, smoky caramel, confit Dragon Fruit (that’s a first!), confit apricots, confit smoke! (I think I mean a sandalwood spice and smoke). Really opulent and beautiful concentrated apricot purity of finish…..it is really easy to just drink glass after glass. However, there is a touch of flatness that leaves it short of perfection (compared to the 2001)….and not quite so memorable as when drank on other occasions. But what the hell, there are enough angels dancing on my tongue for me to be blissfully happy.
