89 Points

Friday, August 26, 2011 - Dinner at Our New Home (Our Place, Hong Kong): Dark crimson colour and totally opaque, which is a bit of a surprise given its age. Nose is distinctively New World assertive fruit...blackberry and raspberry.....still surprisingly fruit-driven and primary. Palate is fresh, refreshing, very well baanced, lots of nice layers of strawberry, raspberry...then some sous-bois, bit of smoke. Nice acidic poise. A really great palate. Finish is quite resonant and persistent....lovely light, chiffonesque fruit.. remniscent of fruit-flavoured mineral water - not dilute, just nicely light. A bit too primary compared to the Louis Jador Beaune 1er Cru Les Bucherottes we drank alongside it but otherwise very similar in lightness of weight.
