Very reductive at first - properly volcanic with yellow plums, bruised apples, raw nuts, honey, gunpowder, and rye bread. High acidity but lacks structure to balance it, with a slightly oily, salty texture. This could have been beautiful, but it lacks self-acceptance.

Give it time to decant properly, though, and everything changes. The reduction disappears, volcanic smoke becomes canvas instead of domination, oxidative notes open up. The texture becomes more beautiful - more pronounced salinity and chalkiness.

Still painfully young with that high acidity, but it transforms from unbalanced to compelling with effort. Don't drink now, do decant. Challenging wine, not simple.
