  Bought this over 10 years ago, and I was a bit hesitant opening it, but this was good! Starts off with loads of citrus, mostly along the lemon and lime lineage, and evolves into a rounder profile with grassy and nutty notes. On the palate, strong line of acid underlying a rich body. Long lasting and very mineral. No idea what I bought this for, but I wish I had more!

  PNP into Radikon glass (“Root” day): Medium bright lemon to the eyes.
  
  Purity of slightly preserved citrus, very slightly nutty and smoky. Incredibly alluring nose. With time more straw-like nose emerged.
  
  Super minerality that really help with this medium acidity variety. Great super clean palate. Finishes long.
  
  Wow wine and 94 points to me.

  Brought to an offline as I Thoth it was the only crowd tht could handle a wine like this. Nose of rubber, burnt match....odd to say the least. Palate had strong acidity and some overcooked veggies. Really not a good wine.

  Interesting stuff - difficult to describe, herbaceous, savory notes, with nice acidity. Not too much fruit, but a great food wine - went really well with fresh calamari.

  Light yellow. Strong reduction never completely blow off, but eventually a sort of roasted corn type character emerges from the funk. More bracing than I even thought possible from these grapes in this area of the world , though not overly acidic by a more global standard. The reductiveness here worries me, but perhaps Schildknecht is right in saying that at least a year of aging will make this into a more satisfying experience.
