Fast dwindling whitish head over hazy, finely carbonated yellow beer. Calvados' nose - but if I hadn't known, I would have just said fine spirit. Further a flavour from pear, rather than apple; ripe wheat, and a bit dusty. Sweet, almondy, marzipan, even a bit cardboard. Much more typical Triple Val-Dieu, than the Grand Vin that completely changed the character. Sweet booze, cream-filled cookies, vanilla. Good carbonation. Alcoholheat, viscous. Rather disappointing, having had the Grand Vin before.
