HDH Auction (Tru - Chicago, IL): This is the kind of spicy, dense aromatic nose I just love in Burgundy. Some brown sugar on the palate, but mostly a melange of cherry, currant, pomegranate, earth, and florals. Great length, and balance too. Lovely stuff.

HDH auction tasting at Tru (Chicago, IL): Very austere nose with a little bit of burnt earth and some darker fruit. The palate is also very austere with some light earthy notes. Loads of acidity but this is open for business now. Awesome.

Wines Tasted at HDH Auction (Tru - Chicago IL): Open 2 hours before serving. Sensational spice driven aromatic start with more black fruit than earth. Very alluring. Similar on palate with some firming tannins, showing some red cherry hints as well. Big positive surprise with none of the bitterness sometimes found in 1988s.

lovely lovely nose: earth, a bit of game and iron along with black cherries. The palate is fantastic-great perfume, just dances across the tongue- fantastic stuff.

Dark fruit and spice on the nose. Seemed a little muddled on the palate.
