  6/13/2022 - uncorked.fr Likes this wine:

  Organic & biodynamic.
  Slight natty funk upon opening, which was oddly already quite pleasant to start with but became increasingly more enticing once the wine started to warm up a bit and release other aromas.
  This was probably the producer's most recent release (2020) but I saw no sign of a vintage anywhere on the bottle's labels or cork so who knows for sure...
