  Dinner at Fragrant Garden (Fragrant Garden Restaurant, Serangoon): Yummy, but a bit dangerously advanced. The nose was attractive, but smelt like something a decade older, with sunny notes of stone fruit and ripe apple, touches of honey and caramel, and a little trail of Genevrieres’ flowers, all this lightly edged with just a little oxidation. The palate was a bit fresher than the nose suggested, with ripe apples and a little suggestion of sweeter stone-fruit flavours, again some light honeyed tones - certainly big and ripe, but also laced with a sneaky bit of bright acidity and just a little lick of mineral, before a warmer touch of nuttiness came out at the finish. There was a lovely depth and a bit of power to this. It threatened to be a little blowsy with all that fleshy fruit, but there was just enough freshness to keep this on the right side of balanced. This bottle was on a the precipice of going down the premox route though - any others in similar condition should be drunk up at pace.

  Blind tasting chez Said: white fruit (apples and pears), salinity, needs air to unfold, I would give it another 2-3 years of cellaring.

  More advanced compared to the last bottle a month ago: deep yellow color, slightly oxidized, earthy, some lemon, good but not on the same level.

  Light yellow color, floral nose, on the palate lemon, yellow fruit with some exotic hints, mineral, excellent balance, a pure pleasure, no hurry, this one can go far.
