  June 2, 2012 - Confrerie des Chevaliers du Tastevin Singapore - Back to Basics 2012 (Absinthe, Bukit Pasoh): Way too young, but this was decent enough. It had a typically Mercurey nose, if there is such a thing, with rustic scents of barnyard and earth, along with pepper and musky spice sprinkled over dark cherries notes. Not unattractive though. The palate showed some sweet, slightly candied and cola-ed cherry fruit at the fore, but this was wed to a msucular structure of firm tannins and bright acidity - so bright that at points that it was almost sharp. The earthy finish then pulled away in a little touch of briar and hawthorne. It was a pretty drinkable wine. Again, a bit on the rustic side and not something I would go out of my way to drink, but I think it should make a decent drink given a good amount of age.
