I really like this producer. This wine looks like its a brooding beast, but it smells like soft seawater and decomposing violets. The palate is insistently acidic and linear. The tannins follow the acid gracefully, wrapping my mouth in a blanket of warmth. Egyptian perfume, myrtle, sage, myrrh. What a trip!
