Tuesday, April 3, 2012 - Dinner at Gunther's (Gunther's, Purivs Street, Singapore): This remains one of the most reliable NV Rosés around. This may not have been the best bottle I have tried, but it was nevertheless still quite good. It had a very pleasant nose, with top-notes of earth and yeast, almost a hint of walnut bread playing on background of strawberry and cherry aromas. The palate was very bright and lively as always, with sprightly acidity running through green strawberry notes spiked with some citrussy lemon and a touch of stony mineral at the decent finish. A fine, lively mousse kept it dancing through the mouth. This could have done with a touch more complexity, but it was otherwise a very nice champagne. As usual, it was a nice foil for a lot of the seafood on the table, perhaps showing best with a lovely Carbinero prawn dish.
