  February 18, 2018 - Ruchottes-Chambertin Grand Cru Dinner (Yan, National Gallery, Singapore): Wow. I was floored by this. Probably the wine of the night amidst a rather ridiculously good line-up; this was an absolutely wonderful bottle. It had a peacock’s tail of a nose, with spice and bramble and sweet red fruit and earth and flowers. Beautiful. It was the palate where this really shone though. Powerful and pure, with punchy flavours of red cherries, earth and spice wrapped into a perfect whole, and then a spine of fine tannins and integrated acidity pulling away into a powerful, insistent, effortless finish. Power and delicacy, depth and transperancy, all in a beautifully put together package. It was stunning. This had everything.
