Thursday, August 25, 2016 - Epic Champagne dinner (Taberna, Bukit Merah): From a magnum - very nice indeed. This had a lovely nose of light toasted brioche, warm caramel, a bit of minerality, and some slightly oxidative white meat and white mushroom notes floating alongside glowing apple fruit aromas. In the mouth, it was round and fleshy, with mature notes of ripe apples, caramel, and a touch of strawberry, but this still backed against a lovely backbone of acid and mineral all the way into long, mouthwatering, mineral finish. Plenty of sinewy strength and power here, but lots of purity too, all draped under graceful robe. A complete showing, drinking beautifully too. Superb.
