Pure, dense, hulking, but kind of a mouse trap.

Initial thoughts on opening was tons of spicy green herbs. After an hr or so the dark berry fruit explodes. Something I didn’t expect. Give it some air or some age if green isn’t your thing.

Reduction and Brett here some stewed fruit - for me the Brett pushes the limit but some interesting other than fruit

Smells beautiful. A little thin on the palate, but very enjoyable.

Have tasted a 1/2 dozen or so bottles of this vintage. Bottles can vary considerably. Some show crunchy purity and others are riddled with brett beyond a threshold I prefer. Fun to open for those who have never tasted though.
