Didier Herbert DH2 Pinot Noir Assemblage minerally finish that leaves behindAmazing perfumed nose full of blueberry, sea salt and blackcurrant. The entrance is very elegant followed by sweet toffee, salt and a creamy mid palate. Then the fruit hits generous, full and round. There's a lovely mousse and a smoky rich mid to late. After a few days this wine truly shows its pedigree, becoming incredibly concentrated, rich and complex. There is such a beauty to the delivery both singular and hugely complex and layered.
