Wines Tasted at HDH Auction (Tru - Chicago IL): Very old aromas and flavors with all tertiary character, but still very firm structural elements. If this bottle is representative, this wine will never integrate at an interesting place. Impossible for me to tell if this wine is past its peak or this was an off bottle. Based on prior experience with Roty and the 1988 vintage, I am slightly more likely to think it somehow a flawed bottle.

Roty dinner. From magnum. Smells like stems and dusty. Big, mineral wine.
