HWS Game dinner 2014: In the bouquet pleasantly stinky with minerals, smoke and yellow fruits. Same on the palate, some oak and showing some age. A fully mature and complex wine. Really lovely now.

Bright green gold. Relatively fleshy expression of Burgundy, a little extra oak at first, but subdued after about an hour. Tasty and fresh, more savory than mineral or tart. Interesting and enjoyable, while knowing the origin factors into the experience.

Rich, sweet and thick. Very nice. White Burgundy meets CdP. Slightly over-the-top apples and ripe melon and the smell of figs and cranberry. Unique. Good w/o food.

Light golden straw colour, fantastic and surprising nose, some honeysuckle and mandarin, and other flowers. Slightly buttery with a toasted brioche (hazelnut) aroma. It is the second time we tasted this wine, last time I ordered a case the next day, I think I want to do this again and will probably convince some of our friend to do that too. I cannot do justice to this wine but I trust Mike and Jean-Paul will help out. For my part I will rate it above what I usually rate great white, truly a fantastic wine, a very well kept secret i.e. under-rated and great value for money.

Blind White Burgundy Dinner (Chez Patrick, Sun Street, Hong Kong): Light greenish straw colour. A light, elegant, lifted nose of high notes of acacia and other white flowers. The palate has an initially very light and chiffon-esque quality with great purity of fresh-cut grass, grapefruit and light honeysuckle. There is a diaphonous resonance but in the front of the head. All elegance but.... no there is weight there too. Like a perfume that is water-based rather than oil-based. Very good indeed. A real find.

light yellow colour. Slightly buttery, nutty nose with hints of citrus and minerals. In the mouth, the wine is rich. Typical burgundy nuttiness and toasted brioche flavours are balanced by minerality freshness and hints of grapefruit.Aromas are precise, finale is long and pleasing. Tasted with a gambas risotto

First wine at Le Bernardin in New York. This one worked really well with Chef Ripert's cuisine - the sommelier highly recommened it to our party. This one is young but drinking nicely - excellent balance, restrained fruit, subtle touches of oak and nice acidity. Very enjoyable.

Gorgeous chard, juicy yet loaded with minerally balance... Jasmine, honeyed peach, good balance, yum! This is what chard is about!
