9.3

Smokey, salty devoid of any fruit with salty pebbles, toasted pistachios, raindrops on a hot pavement. Edgy, austere, spicy. Escaping any set standard.
Defined by brilliant acidity on the palate, with saltiness, a bit of beeswax, sourdough complexity.
Blind I guessed Santorini or Etna.
A remarkable, unorthodox wine.
