Tuesday, February 23, 2021 - Dinner at Beng Wan (Beng Wan Terrace): Not bad, but a little too tight and unyielding I thought. The nose started with quite a bit sulphur. When that blew off, there was plenty of reductiveness - so rotten eggs, then flint and chalk, then matchsticks, only after a long while, we got butter and cream, white fruit, and a little florals around the edges. The palate was rather more stirring, with a lot of bright lemony acidity piercing laser-like though a mouthful of white fruit - think green apples and pears - leading into a lovely mineral finish. Still needs time to come together, but this as always was an impressive, very elegant village.
