Wines Tasted at HDH Auction (Tru - Chicago IL): Not a wine you'd expect to see at 15+ yo, but not only was this wonderful, fresh and vibrant, but it getting better with more time in glass. Rich and extravagant fruit aromas with lots of floral elements and a slightly surprising Riesling-like petrol note. Slightly more restrained flavors, but same ripe fruit that still showed good balance with great density for Villages Auxey.

HDH Auction (Tru - Chicago, IL): Wow. What a nose! Definitely some sulphur tones and gorgeous lemon and lime notes. Tons of balance and charisma....my first d'Auvenay and hopefully not my last!
