Very enjoyable. Ambitious style of winemaking, reductive à la mode. Impressive use of the material, but I think its' low acidity suggests this won't improve or develop much

Old ungrafted vines, three different parcels. Excellent viscous white with energy, minerality, salinity. Well integrated but pronounced oak. Not sure if any aging would help here. Still, very much drinkable and exciting.

Very reductive with citrus up front leading straight into a long, lean core with gasoline and other industrial notes and then a long finish on acidity. Needs time to open up.

Tight and closed on the nose. Really builds out on the palate with smoky citrus peel and savoury notes. Finishes very long. Very fresh and energetic. Room for improvement on this.

Struck match nose which dissipates, leaving a hint of tinned citrus fruit, incense. Deeper yellow colour than I was expecting. Lovely palate but lacks a little bite - with time and air that resolves and it has a hit on the back of the palate - the acidity comes to the fore and there is almost an astringency on the finish. This is really good - will look for again.
