Saturday, February 18, 2017 - Dinner with Achille Merlier (Jade Palace, Forum Galleria, Singapore): One of the better wines on the evening, this was drinking very nicely indeed. It had nicely savoury nose, full of earthy, damp soil and some meaty tomes running alongside dark cherry and spice aromas. The palate had an even more dark-fruited character to it - blackberry and plums I thought, liberally seasoned with a nice bit of spice towards a gently long finish with just a little bit of spritziness to it. Not the most complex of bottles, but this was very yummy - soft, juicy, resolved; with a very round and generous feel to it. This was a well-made wine from a nice vintage drinking quite at peak.
