90 Points

Saturday, December 17, 2011 - 2011 Simple Dinner Series 12 :: M's farewell (Jade Palace Seafood Restaurant, The Forum Shopping Mall, Orchard Road): Alcohol :: 13.5%
Opened for 9hrs. Vibrant medium ruby red with bricking hue. Seductive, high tone aromas of sour cherry, meat, stem, spicy intermixed with, orange and autumn leaves. Sour cherry on the palate that seem a little bit lean, but this has good underlying sweetness for the balance along with mocha, dark chocolate, herbaceous and stem. This has good mid palate depth and complexity but just lack a bit of scale. Tannin was a little bit rough and a little bit bitter that distract a little bit but it does provide good grip on the long powerful finish with lots of mineral. This will hit the peak in 3yrs. 90-91+
