  July 20, 2014 - a little bit disappointed, high minerality, nut, petrol but different to matured riesling, elegant, long aftertaste, drank it 28/05/2011, I guess too young

  January 30, 2014 - Chablis like with minerals and white stonefruits. Still very tight and closed. Needs to be more expressive but the body is mineral laden though not impressive.

  January 28, 2014 - Late Night Drinks at Kelvin's (Kelvin and Joyce's Place, Bishan): Decent wine, but a Bienvenues-Bâtard-Montrachet from a lovely vintage like 2002 really needs to be something rather more than decent. Bienvenues-Bâtard-Montrachet. The nose showed maturing aromas of chalk and earth and honey draped over a core of ripe yellow fruited aromas - nectarines maybe, and a whiff of kumquats. Decent, nut nothing especially outstanding. The palate echoed those tones - it was ripe and yellow fruited, with a round, creamy texture; all quite nicely proportioned, with a decent depth and weight. There were nice flashes of an underlying spice and chalky mineral notes that brought Chablis to mind on the finish. However, I thought it went a bit flattish in terms of acidity and lacked some intensity for a Grand Cru. It got a bit better with time and air, but all in all, this was a decently good wine and little else.
