  WFA German Varietal Tasting (Suntec Convention Centre, Singapore): Now, this is one of the strangest wines I have ever tasted. An oaked white Pinot Noir from Baden in Germany - not a bubbly either, just a still white wine. Not too bad, but not altogether a good wine either. Rather Chardonnay like on the palate - some wet wood, walnuts, white stone fruits and a slight peachiness, along with a layer of chalk and soil. Some promise here I thought - almost like a still Blanc de Noirs Champagne. Palate was different, but certainly interesting to say the least. Creamily texture with high acidity, it showed some power in its ripe lemon and little cherry-ish flavours, along with a minerally touch. Rather shrill on the acidity unfortunately, especially towards the finish which showed of sour cherries and lemons. Unusual.
