Saturday, September 30, 2017 - Dinner at Summer Pavilion (Summer Pavilion, Ritz Carlton, Singapore): Really, really nice - this was a wonderful example of Meursault Charmes, drinking beautifully at the moment. The nose was super-expressive here, with classic Meursault drippings of cream and chalk, along with sweeter accents of candy floss and vanilla, a core of white fruited aromas, and then a strong two of earthy minerality underneath it all. A lovely bouquet. The palate was at once big, round and powerful, but there was also a wonderful clarity and juiciness to its full, creamy depth, with lovely flavours of lemon curd seasoned with fragrant nutmeg and cloves, all this wonderfully integrated into a beautiful whole. A very charming wine that was just begging to be drank up.
