The Premox Taste Test - High Risk White Burgundies and More (Mood Indigo, Jalan Kilang Barat, Singapore): An eminently enjoyable Corton-Charlie. It had a rather sweet nose, with ripe red apples and kumquat aromas sprinkled with some exotic spice, and then some stony slate and a little suggestion of almond skin. Nice, if rather surprisingly ripe smelling for a Burgundy. The palate was equally expressive. It had a lovely, developed feel to it, with fresh flavours of sweet lemons and apples along with little honeyed notes on midpalate - while not the most complex Grand Cru Burg, it had a very integrated, very complete feel to it. Very nice finish too, very bright and lively, with a little tail of mineral and some nutty accents mingling with sweet fruit notes. So very enjoyable - a bit on the richer, riper side of things, but this was a very nice wine that was right in its drinking window.

Dinner at Home (Vancouver, BC): I’ve had the good fortune of having this wine a few times, all from the same source, so I know what this wine should be about. A real shame this bottle was off.

200 Burgundy Grand Crus from vintage 2000, 4-day blind tasting (Singapore): Lovely rather than great, less intensity than the top wines in this flight.

Musique & Vin Festival BYO Dinner with Musicians (1243 Bourgogne Society - Beaune): Small glass, brief note. Rich orchard fruit with good+ concentration and depth. A rugged white, rather than finessed.
