First time with this wine/producer. From what I understand - a real natural wine. Something I can confirm - it did not taste like 95% of the wine on the market - it had raw elements to it - no fruit, all meat, smoke, dust, olives. Unfined and unfiltered - it actually had a 3-inch stem inside and about a 1/2 inch of sediment. A really strong showing on that particular night - clean and mineral, making it hard to hide anything (not that that was the intent). I will drink this again any day!

Smoke, flint, olives, beetroot and cured meats. Good length with more savoury/meaty character. Carries well and there is plenty of interesting elements.

A spicy, funky, bretty beast but very "natural" Frenchy and pleasant to us there who like this style. Good food wine!
