Thursday, November 5, 2020 - Montrachet and Amoureuses dinner (Nicolas Restaurant, Teck Lim Street, Singapore): Very yummy. Given the softer 2006 vintage, this actually drank better when served just a touch more chilled then I normally would for a Grand Cru. This had a lovely nose, with sweet wafts of ripe red apples shading into peach, a drift of white florals, and then typical notes of cream and chalky mineral. Very pretty. The palate was delicious at this point, if maybe just lacking a touch of the cut and definition I would expect from a top Chevalier. It unfolded across the mouth with lovely soft layers of white fruit - apples and ripe pears, maybe a sweeter hint of melon, and then just the lightest coating of cream, flowers and a tiny little tail of minerality lingering in a long finish. Not sure this is one for the future, but it was delicious and drinking very well now.
