Confrerie des Chevaliers du Tastevin Singapore Chapitre de la St Hubert (The Lighthouse, Fullerton Hotel): Very good indeed - this is just about hitting its stride, and should continue evolving beautifully over the next few years. Nose showed lots of nutty, walnut notes, toasted sesame seeds, some turkey ham accents, white pears and a very nice seam of gunflint. Palate had nice heft, with an oily texture to it, but this certainly was not the richest Corton-Charlie I have ever had. The wine was more about focus and balance, with clean, precise flavours of white fruit and seasame seeds moving into pear fruit and a nutty finish with really nice length to it. Just great with a sweetish Gorgonzola cheese.
