Professional Review: With great intensity and structure, this is a wine that's all about texture and potential. It's expressive with white fruits and perfume, but there's a richness that's still to come. Drink from 2016 and see how the minerality and acidity will come into balance.
My Review: This wine had one of the most unique smells I've experienced of any wine so far. It smelled like playdough and legos with a hint of grass. However for all the unique smell, I was disappointed when I realized it had no body, taste/flavor. It was also very dry. I had this wine at a tasting without a meal.
