  May 7, 2021 - Belated Birthday Dinner (Nicolas Restaurant, Teck Lim Street, Singapore): Super yummy. I really liked this. The nose was pure Vosne, with notes of woody, spicy sandalwood and cardamom, floating around a core of black cherries, dark plums and berries, and then a more savoury touch of earth, meat and mineral. Compelling stuff. The palate was lovely too. Effortlessly powerful, this filled the mouth with generous flavours of black cherries and dark plums, earth and meat, liberally seasoned with notes of wood spice, orange peel and an earthy minerality, all trailing away into a satisfyingly full finish. Firm but fine tannins and nicely balancing acidity rounded it off. This was not the most polished or refined wine, but boy was it a delicious charmer. An archetypal Suchots to my mind. Lovely stuff, drinking well now.
