Does not like this wine:

87 Points

Friday, June 16, 2023 - Day 1: 96PP, 93+CT - Quite good ratings made me curious. Colour is bright golden and looks a bit older than expected. Nose is filled with lemon oil, minerals and overall an austere freshness. I found the nose not inviting. Palate is full bodied, nicely structured but with a punching distorted acidity. Finish is salivating and long, but again austere and harsh.

I thought at one point this might have some kind of flaw, bit following the notes here, the wine is correct and just overly steely, austrere and acidic. For me I miss balance, energy and tension. It seems flabby and uncontrolled. I will follow this wine for several days to see how it develops.

Day 2: Long aeration has helped this wine and originated more stone fruit flavors and lost some harshness. Still, this wine remains a mystery to me and is subjectivel disjointed.
