  Refreshing nose, rich white fruit, longans, lemons, lime and oysters, and seashells and minerals.

  100 Year Old Champagne and Other Wonders (Kingyo, Marina Square): This was quite nice. A reductive at first even though we had opened it half an hour before serving, it showed a little whiff of rubber bands when first poured. However, this blew off in a bit to reveal a nose of white meat, white fruit and mineral. Rather subtle, a bit subdued, but nice. At first, the palate seemed even more reductive, but that too faded with time thankfully. Beneath that, there was a really nice Chablis-like salinity and oyster shell mineral notes streaked through its rather more neutral white fruit flavours. The mousse could have been a bit finer, but otherwise, the wine was quite full and fleshy, with a nice presence on the midpalate. The finish was impressive too, tailing off with a nice minerally twist. Good when drank on its own, this was beautiful with a range of sashimi, especially delectable slices of swordfish.
