Monday, March 25, 2019 - Domaine Armand Rousseau - Chambertin and Clos de Beze Dinner (Imperial Treasure Shanghai, Ngee Ann City, Singapore): A decently good wine, but this somehow did not quite come across like a Chardonnay for some reason. The nose smelt liked an oaked Sauvignon Blanc to me, with ripe gooseberry, green limes and mineral - even with a bit of cat’s pee at the sides. I could have sworn this was an SB. The palate was fairly big though, with a round, buttery texture, and ripe red apple and sweet lemon notes, all this pierced by a spine of really bright, citrusy acidity and a good bit of minerality. There was a touch of spice and warmth at the end, and just that trace of oak, but otherwise a decent wine that will get better with time.
