  • Wine was closed a little out of the bottle but after 30min it opened up nicely with a big cherry smell with wet forest floor. On the palate then tannins have melted leaving behind a smooth taste of sweet cherries, mushroom and wet forest taste. Not likely to improve beyond where it is now as acidity is already medium low and starting to lose power in the mouth. Overall a very nice experience but not unforgettable.

  • Confrerie des Chevaliers du Tastevin Singapore, Potel Tasting. (Harbour Grill, Hilton Hotel, Singapore): Very young, but good potential on this one. Cool, clean cherry drop nose at first, with some dry earth. Took on a bit more complexity and weight with time in the glass. Clear, clean fruit again on the palate, with a sense of power and persistence. Bits of spice started appearing with time, and slowly became more and more pronounced. Firm tannins, more velvet than silk, stood out quite a bit, especially at the start of the palate. It was certainly tighter and a lot firmer that the Charmes Chambertin tasted together. High alcohol, and rather lower acid than its stablemate. I would have liked a bit more freshness on a wine of this intensity. Still, I liked the really focused fruit and long, lingering finish.
