Sunday, September 30, 2012 - Mid-Autumn Eve Dinner (Margaret & Kevin's House, Tai Po, New Territories, Hong Kong): Viscous and deep yellow-gold colour. Nose is lovely sweaty new leather and melted butter, with yellow citrus fruits poking through....wow, it really opened up as the evening air warmed it up. Palate is an immediate mothfeel of warm buscksin with very well-delinated and balanced warm confit lemon, some sort of smoked white ham, super integrated oak, rich melted butter, toasted hazelnuts, toasted white bread, white nougat.....very complex. A smoky temple element emerges with extended time. Very weighty but nearly weightless.....really regal, elegant, restrained but so powerful. A very nice medium-toned resonance on the finish and a long medium tone reverberance inside the head. It has a super burnt hazelnuts aftertaste that lasts forever. This was really on song and a delightful way to begin the evening.
