Never seen a screwcap on one of these. Maybe that's why it looks reductive as fuck. Seriously stinks at first. Fades a little but still funky. The palate is nice, a lot of dry extract and high acidity. There's definite potential here but the vegetal stink never really went away for me. It obscures the fruit significantly.
I should have decanted it. It was shared with 4 others so it was gone within 20-30 minutes of it being opened. In that time it did evolve a bit but it never really came around fully.

Solo 2300 litros (1/2 ha). Riesling en un suelo de pizarra roja y arcilla. Hierbas aromáticas, fruta blanca y fruta con hueso sobre un fondo ligeramente especiado. En boca hay sensación de materia, muy buena acidez, atractiva mineralidad y notable longitud.

Apple, citrus, stone fruit, minerals and some spice on the finish. Especially delicious with the smoked whitefish pate.
Drink now or age
