Fathers' Gathering (RPM Italian, Washington D.C.): Medium expressive nose displaying ripe yellow fruit, apple, pineapple, fresh lemon, a hint of crem brulee, vanilla/oak, sweet spices and mineral. Very good concentration, generous ripe yellow fruit, sweet, bright acidity, medium mineral, and a medium long ripe yellow fruit driven finish. Perhaps it is the vintage but this is a modern style of white Burgundy.

HDH Burgundy Auction; 5/17/2019-5/18/2019 (Chicago, IL): This is no slouch in the Dujac stable -- the nose shows a mild bit of reduction, but also some really lovely white fruit. Lean, with plenty of acidity and lovely cut. Surprisingly fresh and bright for the vintage.

Popped and poured. Did not double decant as I hadn't seen evidence of other CT tasters doing this with this wine.
Lovely clear lemon yellow color. Quite bright.
Nose of grapefruit, fresh oak, lemon, touch of pineapple. Touch of allspice. Slate mineral undertone.
On palate, wine is sound. Medium-high acid, high alcohol, long finish. Passionfruit more predominant on palate along with citrus and almost a lichee finish (which is very long). Wow. Sort of in between a Kistler and an Aubert to me. Just lovely.

Minerals, citrus, and honey. This has really come into balance with bright acidity cutting through the softening mouthfeel.
