  February 18, 2018 - Ruchottes-Chambertin Grand Cru Dinner (Yan, National Gallery, Singapore): Very good. This had a typically Roumier nose, really expressive and in-your-face, with a blast of ripe cherries, earth and meat, and a bit of brambly herb at the back. The palate was quite open for a 2010 - the great big fruit and the acidity of the vintage were there, but not in a disjointed way. It had some of Roumier’s fleshy, ripe expression in the red fruited attack, and then lovely mouthful of spice with a bit of bramble and minerality moving into a long, long finish. Way too young of course, but this was readily impressive, with a subtle power and depth wed to a real focus and definition. 93+
