Thursday, March 14, 2019 - Burdgundy village wines from top producers (East Treasure, Clarke Quay, Singapore): One of two 1er Cru whites in the midst of a sea of village reds, this seeemd advanced, but was still very pleasant. The nose gave off smells of ripe apples, shading into sweeter yellow-fruited aromas, even a touch of tropical pineapple, and then a little citrus and mineral running behind. Pretty nice. The palate had a nice fullness to it, with ripe, round notes of red apples and sweet lemons, just beginning to be touched with the very slightest edge of oxidation, and then a creamy, almost oily textured finish with a touch flush of spice at the edges of the back palate, and chalkier mineral notes underneath. Full and powerful, yet decently balanced. A pleasant wine, if perhaps lacking the cut and precision that the best wines from the vineyard are capable of showing.
