Post DRC-tasting Dinner (Jade Palace, Forum Galleria): How unusual - a 13 year old Slovenian Pinot! Not great, but very commendable for what it is. Very nice nose for sure - peppery spice, strawberries and red berries, cassis, earth, mineral. Attractive stuff. Did not like the palate quite as much though, Quaffable, with a nice softness and fresh acidity, but there was a sightly cough-syrupy sweetness to its rich cassis and berry fruit that was rather too much. All in all, decent, interesting stuff, but not something I would shell out to buy,

Burghound in Asia (DRC vs the World Blind Tasting) (St Regis, Brasserie Les Saveurs): Extracted blue fruit but still balanced.

Charming fragrant floral. V flowy and silky gentle. Nicely played. Obviously an old world non burg Pinot.

Fresh red fruit aromas...crisp, medium-bodied fruit in the mouth with good acidity and depth...still not at peak.
