It’s famous among wine aficionados for its ‘racy acidity’, which is code for tasting like pure lemon juice. So why would you want to buy a wine that feels like it’s taking the enamel off your teeth? The only reason that I can think of is that you might want to take a bet on its keeping qualities. The label suggests that ‘cellaring for 7-10 years will reward’ and I’d go along with that as keeping the bottle somewhere cool for some years will allow the wine time to rearrange its molecules into something that tastes like marmalade.
