HDH auction tasting at Tru (Chicago, IL): Candied cherry nose. Muted hint of earth. On the palate, this wine seems to have faded, with a lot of rust and acid flavours without any fruit or spice to counterbalance. Very, very tight still, but I've no idea what some extra air would do to the wine.

Profound sweet red and dark cherry, orange peel,rose, haw sweet fruits flavour, along with some chalky minerality, incense and spices on the nose. Palate is tight and not showing much with some sour cherry & ginger spice notes. It has good focus and purity though. Firm tannins and jammy medium finish.
