Community Tasting Note

Monday, September 16, 2019 - TNs: Female Burgundy Winemakers Dinner (Yan, National Gallery, Singapore): Really good too - this was not too far behind a tremendous bottle of 2000 Drouhin Laguiche Montrachet served alongside. The nose was pure Leflaive, with a little flinty lilt, a nice bit of chalk, and bits of white fruit and seashell minerality. The palate had a real sense of energy to it, with bright, lemony acidity racing through beautifully delineated flavours of fresh apples, and a base of chalk and lovely stony minerality trailing away into a wonderfully detailed finish. Gorgeous stuff, lots of power and depth, great length, yet wed to a tremendous sense of definition and focus. While far from undrinkable now, this will only get better with time. I thought it probably needed another 5-6 years before really hitting its stride.
