Monday, October 8, 2018 - Hanzell dinner at Table, Donkey and Stick (Chicago, IL): My favourite of the evening. An intense nose with plenty of stemmy, brown spice, just the way I like it. (Yes, I said this was kind of Dujacy in that way.) The fruit profile clearly takes this out of Burgundy, with its opulence and sweetness. However, well balanced with the earth -- this is clearly a bigger wine, but it is still structured and in no danger of falling apart either. While I enjoyed many of the wines tonight, this is the one that I would actually drink.
