Michelin Gala Dinner at the Grand Hyatt Macau.
Mumm Grand Cordon Brut
2012 Château des Quarts Pouilly-Fuissé Clos des Quarts - nice and toasty on the nose. Very ripe and soft on the palate, almost limp, and no finish other than the feeling of alcohol burning the back of my throat.
2013 Pernot-Belicard Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Champ Gain - nose fairly aromatic, with surprisingly good ripeness. Minerality came out when paired with the homard bleu, with some acidity at the back.
2012 La Tour Figeac - pretty ripe and sweet, but not quite jammy. A little smoke in the fragrant and floral nose. Still rather tannic. Surprise on the upside.
2012 François Feuillet Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Sentiers - pretty heavy, toasty nose, nice and floral, with sweet fruit notes. Seemed a little cloudy and dirty...
2011 Ogier Côte-Rôtie - lovely floral and lavender notes, with some leather and eucalyptus. A little sharp from the alcohol.
