Had a pettiance that took away from enjoying the wine. Interesting as an example of filtration problems but not as much fun to drink.

Actually enjoyed this wine right out of the bottle. Full bodied, subtle complexity and smooth finish.

This could use some time to mellow out but I enjoyed the super funk of this one. I don't agree with the other comments below. It's a natural wine , very raw where the wine maker thrashes the wild grass and flowers that grow in between the vines, as well as, open fermentation allowing local yeasts to populate the wine giving its unique qualities.
