Oh my. The nose hits hard - chocolate, dried fruits, withered flowers, truffles, smelly clay, and that unmistakable Ya'an cha touch - a mix of fermented dark tea with raspberry notes. It's captivating, slightly feral but utterly beautiful. On the palate, it's still unmistakably green - tannin is fierce, structure is rigid, but somehow the wine pulls itself together in near-perfect balance. The aftertaste lingers like a whispered spell: sublimated raspberry, aged tea leaves, mushrooms. A haunting, grounded kind of elegance.
