  December 23, 2016 - Tasting with Michelle and Bo in Singapore (Pine Close): This is one of those surprises that Burgundy throws up every now and again - an old village from a humble appellation, decent rather than great vintage, and unknown winemaker - yet somehow really delivering a lot of charm and enjoyment, The nose was really pretty - with lots of sweet hawthorne fruit and floral notes lined with some ferrous mineral notes. With time, a waft of fresher red fruited tones came out as well. A beautiful aged red Burgundy bouquet. The palate was yummy too. Clearly starting to thin out a bit, but still having oodles of charm, with notes of red cherries and haw flakes, with some orange peel and slightly earthy, mushroomy hints. There was still bright acidity, and some silky tannins that gave the wine just a light grip at finish. Lovely stuff. Such a blushing beauty of an Aloxe village.
