People, don't forget how cool this wine is. It is a strange and unique style but has depth of flavor, loads of minerality, and a long finish. Made by a master

Flavor intensity and complexity in spades. Some natural funk but it adds to the whole and doesn't overwhelm. Food-friendly, rustic and redrinkable. Great stuff.

Admittedly I don't know what "correct" is on this wine. but I don't smell it and think "I want to put this in my mouth" & and don't taste it thinking I want to taste again.

Still a bit rough and raw, but with plenty of potential.

Little tingly. Light and first, but then plays tricks on your whole mouth. The guy at the store told me it was a weird, off-putting wine.
