  Vertical tasting of 2013-2021. More fatty and more accentuated saltiness than the '13, acidity also more forward. Clearly in the more mature state however.

  Lightning's note is really spot on. This is in a great phase right now.

  Toasty, with apricot pits, slate and smoke on the nose. Lively acidity, punchy fruit with wood spice, medium to full bodied, with length. Sealed under Nomacork.

  Lots going on already in the nose, citrus (maybe now maturing into tangerine rather than grapefruit), smoke, wet stone (you vividly see the sea-waves breaking against the rocks). Rather broad palate but never dull thanks to the high acidity. But the "wild" in the name is not accidental: there is something untamed about it. Long finish with a touch of flower honey really rounds the up the wine. Fun but not superficial. At least 90.
  
  (The oak is so well integrated it's almost imperceptible.)

  Pale yellow color with a bouquet and flavor of green beans with some citrus and faint musty notes as well. Not much in the way of nuance or depth, but drinkable, and not unpleasant.
