Community Tasting Note

Tuesday, March 4, 2014 - DSC tries out Nuvo (Nuvo, Marina Square, Singapore): A solid, unspectacular left-bank Bordeaux, but quite pleasaurable - exactly what you would expect from a house of this level on a good vintage. The nose was very classic, with sweet cassis and red berry aromas wed to tea leaves, tobacco and a touch of oak. I thought the palate was quite good. Again, it had familiar tones of cassis and blackberries, spice and tobacco, with a touch of menthol at the finish. Good fruit, good acidity, well-structured if just a touch of drying on the tannins. Very pleasant, if just a bit nondescript. It should last quite a long time yet in the bottle, but I am not sure it will improve much. It is certainly decent drinking now, especially with the beef we had. Pretty nice - this was my favourite wine of the day.
