94 Points

Sunday, February 18, 2018 - Ruchottes-Chambertin Grand Cru Dinner (Yan, National Gallery, Singapore): Really really fine - this was a gorgeous wine. It had a sweet nose of red fruit and perfumed florals backed-up with little savoury touches of meat and earth. The palate was still marked with a little robe of powdery tannins and bright acidity, but there was a lovely midpalate of pure, crystalline tones of red cherries and florals wrapped up in a perfume mouthful. Effortless and graceful, with a beautifully soft, long finish. Beautiful in its youth, this lacked some of the power and definition of the 2010 Roumier Ruchottes in the same flight, but it was so very seductively beautiful even in its youthfulness that I could not help but like this just a tad more. Super stuff.
