Powerful but vibrant, a volatility that enlivens the wine, and a riot of pure flavors

Awesome balance. Lacey thread of volatile woven throughout, lively, exciting, oak rounds out the corners

Darker and cloudy. Co2/spritz. "Natural" lively, funky, acid. Fruity and sour. Greenness but ripe as well. Too savage for this group. Probably not a wine that travels well. Funny these all seem to have black nomacorks.

Some of the most intense green olive flavors I've ever encountered. Not my cup of tea
