Community Tasting Note

Wednesday, November 13, 2019 - Clos St Jacques Dinner (Gunther's, Purivs Street, Singapore): A solid showing, but this needs time yet. The nose was very attractive, if a bit tighter than its flight mates’, with a dusty, earthy undertone to rather rich aromas of black cherries, wet ferrous stone, meat and a hint of spice. Really nice. The palate was very solid as well. Very Gevrey, very CSJ, with tight but pure notes of dark cherry fruit, ferrous mineral and dried earth underpinned with a nicely sinewy structure of fine, firm tannins and decent acidity. Surprisingly cool toned for 2006. Very good, even if slightly overshadowed by some of its illustrious company. This does need another 6-8 years in the bottle at least though.
