  • I would have rated it as a Grand Cru in a blind tasting. The wine is perfectly balanced and very flavorful.

  • Year end dinner at Jade Palace. First white in a flight of 4. Deep yellowish gold. This looked aged, but was younger than what I felt it was. Very interesting nose of freshly cut grass, wheat, ice cream soda, pineapple and caramelized applies. A little weak on the palate, some matured yellow fruit, barley, grass, leaf with a touch of mint.

  • Impromptu Afternoon at Mood Indigo (Mood Indigo, Jalan Kilang Barat, Singapore): Not the most elegant of wines, especially from a vineyard named "Demoiselles", but this was a nice 1er Cru that showed well on the day. The nose showed a rather savoury character, with cream sauce, bread and some earthy notes underlying more neutral white fruit and melon aromas. A very masculine nose if you could call it that. The palate had a nice strength and conviction to it. It was good depth and power and a nice freshness to its white fruited notes of apples and melons seasoned with more savoury notes of spice and earth and a saline, almost salty mineral background. This could almost have been a Chablis with its profile. The finish too seemed to take in more Northerly terroir, with bright acidity and almost bittersweet mineral notes filling the backpalate nicely. I thought this was a solid wine - one with good quality and an interesting bit of character. With time and air though, it softened quite rapidly and started losing a bit of focus. Time to start drinking up I think - I doubt it will improve much more in the bottle.

  • good but not great tonight, showing age with rounded and rich palate, but with enough acid to make enjoyable, palate on night one was lemon dominated which was good, some smoke, saved a bit for night two and tiffany said pears and apples on both nose and palate

  • From 1.5L. Yellow orchard fruit and yellow citrus on the nose and palate. Vibrant fruit. Great denisty on the palate with medium weight and finish. Nice acidity on the finish. Showing really nice tonight.
