Community Tasting Note

Wednesday, February 3, 2016 - Dim Sum Club at Empress (Empress, Asian Civilizations Museum, Singapore): Enjoyable. This had a lovely nose redolent with dried flowers and sweet, slightly dried cherries and berries, all underpinned by a gentle funky earthiness. Attractive, even if it smelt a bit older than it actually was. Same thing on the palate. The fruit had started to mellow into a dried red fruit tones, with secondary flavours of bramble, herb and earth coming up alongside. There was just enough floral character on it to suggest Chambolle, just before the wine slid into a surprising firm finish for a 2000, with a slight chew of powdery tannins and woody bramble at the end. All in all, pretty good without being special.
