Friday, May 4, 2012 - Farewell Runny....at least for now! (Chez Patrick Restaurant, 2/F, Garden East, 222 Queen's Road East, Wan Chai, Hong Kong): Surprisingly light amber jewel colour...fully transparent. Noe is high-toned nail varnish remover and kirsch....intense and petrolly. Palate is sharp, light precise cherry and acidity that suddenly shifts into classic madiera-infused Christmas Cake....rum and fleshy raisins and plump sultanas and dates...oh, and vanilla custard. There is a femininity to this port....maybe I mean it's more like Stollen than Christmas Cake.
