Community Tasting Note

Friday, November 22, 2019 - Kelvin T's 40th Birthday (Imperial Treasure Teochew, Tanjong Pagar): Significantly better than the last bottle I had about 8 years back, this was very enjoyable on the night. Still young, but clearly displaying a lot more of its quality tonight. It had a great nose, with little sprigs of eucalyptus littered over a core of blueberries and violets, dried earth and wet stony mineral, all tied together with a smoky, savoury waft of roasted meats. Lovely stuff. The palate was very fresh and lively, with notes of blueberries, earth and meat all led by a streak of bright, orangey acidity into a finish swirling with smoke and spice. A lovely, complete wine, with fine tannins giving the whole mouthful a really nice shape. This put a smile on my face. It does need time though - I would put any bottles away for at least 5-6 years more.
