Taste comprises tangy citric zest, herb, damp straw, funk, grape must, yeast esters. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a tangy edge. Okay drop ... a little tired though.

2017 draft at the Paso Robles taproom. Clear golden yellow color, pretty much still. Aro A of light overripe stonefruit. Taste is vinous, light tannins, soft funk. Each of the wild series is a completely different variation on a theme. Awesome
