  July 11, 2017 - My Pinot Birthday Celebration 2017 (Kallang Way Extra Space): Tasted blind. Pop and poured. Drank from bottle over 2 hours.
  Appearance is clear, pale intensity, ruby colour with garnet edge. Legs.
  Nose is clean, medium+ intensity, with aromas of stony minerality, blood iron, earth, violets, baby powder, dark red cherries. Developed.
  On the palate, dry, high acidity, medium alcohol (13%), firm medium tannins, medium+ body. Medium+ flavour intensity, with flavours of dark red cherries, stony minerality, earth, sweet spices, blood iron. Long finish.
  Very good quality. I was guessing a 2002 Clos de la Roche. On hindsight, good Vosne spice and Malconsorts fruit. Time to drink up and enjoy. Sometimes some of these off-vintage Burgs can offer lots of enjoyment too.
