Sunday, February 18, 2018 - Ruchottes-Chambertin Grand Cru Dinner (Yan, National Gallery, Singapore): Wow - this was seriously good. It takes something to best a Roumier AND a Rousseau on the same flight, but this probably just about did. The nose was the most subtle of the trio, but was lovely nonetheless, with gentle drifts of dark cherries, earth, spice and violets. Dark and seductive. The palate was drinking absolutely beautifully - soft and seductive, with velvety tannins and soft acidity flowing through a beautiful midpalate of gentle dark cherries, earth, meat and spice, all beautifully integrated into a wonderful, gentle finish. Yummy - this was drinking just beautifully now. What a wonderful wine though. Gentle and insistent - this had a quiet profoundity to it that really crept up on you.
