Experience with this wine is so different from all other notes on here, most likely flawed bottle. Not heat/sun damage, not corked but the nose came out salty, savory, stuffed with preserved cabbage. Fruit mostly gone but the body has good balance. Obviously not enjoyable and would like to try another bottle for comparison.

Gorgeous nose, elegant and refined. Almonds, honey, dried fruit, extremely balanced. Fine acidity on the palate brings energy, stunning wine who keeps developing during the evening.

Most consistent Overnoy vintage ever. Had the same wine a few months ago (see note below) and this one delivered equally. Everything harmonious and very elegant, with a lovely thread of acid to keep it lively.

So unique. Barnyard nose and super energetic palate. Wild complexity. Quite young still

So much complexity in a very young and primary package. Endlessly fascinating these wines are. In a word, terrific.
