Shared bottle @ Patricks. Quite clear pale golden body with a small, fast disappearing, lacing white head. Aroma is nice, quite acidic fruity or maybe more in the direction of berries and grapes, hint of wood. Flavor is clean, crisp, acidic berries/grapes with wood and mild funk. Fine balanced body and rather tart in aftertaste. Very nice, feels quite acidic after the first sips, but seems to get in balance after a few more sips.
