Auction bottle. Absolutely wonderful with tertiary notes but not oxidative. More like a honied, mushroom taste vs. nutty/oxidative. Very complex, fine bubbles.

Definitely on the oxidative side of the spectrum as you’d imagine, with some pretty wild aromas that remind me of Epoisses or other raw milk cheeses. The bubbles in this particular bottle are almost gone. Funky and interesting if you’re into sherry, vin jaune, or Lopez de Heredia blanco but may be too much oxidation for some.
