Community Tasting Note

Saturday, February 2, 2019 - Lo Hei dinner at Peach Garden (Peach Garden, OCBC Building): Pretty good. The nose was pure Gevrey, with red fruit, earth, meat and spice. Smelt a bit extracted as one would expect from Bachelet, but nice nonetheless. The palate had a certain sweetness to it, with extracted flavours of ripe black cherries and dark berries, but these were layered with a firm structure of firm tannins and bright acidity that brought the whole wine into balance. Just a touch woody on the tannins though - very Bachelet in that aspect - but otherwise a nice strong wine, with a good sense of depth and purity to it. Probably still needs time in the bottle to tame some of that woody extraction though. Probably one to try in 3-4 years time.
