Full, enchanting nose of smoky mature red and black cherry with subtle spice. A terrific mouthful of bright red cherry with lively acidity. Good balance and length. Complex array of maturing fruit, spice, smoke and earth flavors. Nice lingering finish.

HDH auction at Spiaggia; 5/17/2018-5/19/2018 (Chicago, IL): A very lovely bottle of 1996 Burgundy -- a lovely nose of red fruit and earth, with a really incredible spiciness to it. The palate is definitely on the acidic side, as is normal for the vintage, but there's so much earth, spice, and red fruit here.

Beautiful nose. Drinking nice, acidity seems little high. Gamey, ume plums, cherries. Incense spice on the finish.
