Was looking forward to this but unfortunately very shut. Had a lovely aromatic nose and silky texture on the palate but not completely in balance. Quite Gevrey in character with earthy notes and tart cherries. A superb wine in the making, but too serious and only showing a glimpse of its potential at the moment.

HDH auction at Spiaggia (ft. Maison Leroy); 9/13/2018-9/15/2018 (Chicago, IL): Tight and young, but absolutely correct and brilliant pinot. It's not the showiest or flashiest or most glamorous producer, but there's something that is always very honest about these wines. This is no exception -- really nice tart red fruit balanced with some earth tones as well. The palate is a little crunchy and the tannins still young and a bit bracing. This still needs time to come around, but there's already signs of brilliance.

Rare and amazing wine. Dense, tense and still young but with incredible depth. Tannins and gevrey notes but with a perfume like a grand cru vosne. Amazing.
