An unexpectedly engaging experience unfolds in this bottle, which carries more than 20 years of history. The wine’s character has deepened with age, revealing pronounced oxidation and a developed some complexity. The fruit is sparse—barely perceptible except as dried, almost grilled nuances, perhaps reminiscent of a slightly bruised-smeared yellow apple. Instead, it leans on nutty, salty pickle qualities with a subtle nod to Fino Jerez. On the palate, balanced acidity and a hint of minerality keep the structure intact. It feels a bit weary now though.
