HDH Dec auction trip/dinners at SKY and RPM Italian; 12/13/2018-12/15/2018: From magnum. A touch of earthy funk on the nose leads into a palate with pretty red fruited flavours and lots of mature savouriness. The fruit still feels fairly fresh, though it’s well into the phase when the tertiary savoury flavours have overtaken the fruit.

HDH December auction; 12/13/2018-12/15/2018 (Chicago, IL): From magnum. Slightly dirty on the nose, with some heavy earthy notes. Lots of nice red fruit on the back end, counterbalanced by the lighter earth flavours. Perhaps more interesting than good? Some grainy tannins on the back end too.

Wines Tasted at HDH Auction; 12/13/2018-12/15/2018 (Spiaggia - Chicago IL): From magnum. Lingering red fruit with savory spice hints. More earth and mushroom that fruit, with a slightly dirty character on both nose and palate. Some liked this much more, others much less.
