This wine possesses a demanding style, with abundant notes of Jerez, mushrooms, red apple skin, and honey. It's crisp and quite intense, yet it lacks the necessary structure to support its acidity and minerality. While these attributes are notable, they come across as too aggressive without a solid backbone. Despite its shortcomings, it remains a nice and interesting wine. Its potential for ageing is uncertain, as it may not have the structure required to develop favourably in the cellar.
