As you know, here at Cantillon we take the utmost care to produce our beer as naturally as possible. Because the Muscat grapes used for the Vigneronne were not organic, we decided to move to an organic producer and to use wine grapes instead of table grapes. After some research, we couldn't find organic Muscat, but we did find organic Viognier grapes.
We love Viognier wine; aromatic and delicate, with nice fruity notes. We're sure that all these qualities will pair well with Lambic.The grapes come from Minervois area in the South of France, cultivated in a more natural way on a clay-limestone soil.
Even though we decided to move from Muscat grapes to Viognier, the name will remain the same. We did decide to change the label to avoid any confusion between past releases with Muscat grapes. The new one features a fantastic design by our wonderful graphist and friend, Ammo.
See you in Spring 2020 for the result.
Santeï!

Flaska från Gerijptebieren drucken med ölföreningen. Frisk med väl avvägd dyra, lite funk, druvor och aningen mineraler. Harmonisk och mycket god.

Diluted golden with a wispy white head. A bit of must right off the bat followed by light acidic notes but not over the top- just a light amount. A bit of oak followed by earth along side a touch of well-integrated grapes and citrus notes. Medium bodied. Finish is medium-dry with light acidity. Beautiful beer.

All'olfatto si esprimono sentori di sour. L'olfatto viene stimolato in maniera elevata, permanendo in maniera sufficiente. Il cappello di schiuma resiste poco. La grandezza delle bollicine è medio-fine. Il liquido è di apparenza velata. Il colore è giallo dorato brillante. Il corpo è pieno. L'amaro è di media potenza e c'è anche una componente moderatamente acidula. La forza gustativa è molto elevata e la durata è persistente. Le sensazioni boccali finali risultano di birra beverina. Il retrogusto è intenso. Il tetto della bocca porta note di miele, pane, cracker, frutta secca, agrumi, arancia, mandarino, mela, frutta passita, prugna, vino bianco, zenzero, sour e uva passa.

0,75l bottle at home. 2021 Cork for Season 21/22. Bottled 11. October 2021. smells funk, earthy, tannins, some stone fruits, spices, light peaches. nice to very nice smell. full body, soft carbonation. tastes funk, earthy, volatile acids / lactic, grassy, bit citric, light tannins, subtle peach notes, light minerals. finishes rather dry and medium sour with notes of peaches, volatile acids and mineral notes. good one, not great. Bordering on too acidic, in general the grapes arent too expressive ... wishing back the Muscat years..

Armsby draught, 4/20/24. Gentle chill haze. Brass-bronze. Small, white head highs rim. Delicately fruity, grape-forward, but lacking that annoying, punchy acid that dominates so many grape beers. Lovely barnyard quickly follows with light oak and rich, fruity Brett lingering on the finish. Rich, juicy, lush with well-developed viognier character. Bright and rustic with soft barnyard undercurrents and a youthful oakiness. Moderate lactic acidity coupled with Brett. Citrusy almost, at times. The grapes are both wonderfully developed yet also well-integrated. Impressive for (what I assume) is the most recent batch. Excellent balance. Pleasingly tart and round. Malty and well-attenuated.

Аромат хороший, кислый, сенный, отдает шампанским, действительно белым виноградом, немного яблок и груш, цитрусы. Цвет как Гез, может чуть светлее, пена средняя. Вкус весьма кислый, удивляет большое количества сена, цитрусы есть но меньше чем в запахе, яблочко моченое прям на месте, сок от белого винограда. Весьма яркая и длительная кислинка, но радует что она не цитрусовая. В целом очень крутой ламбик.

2023 bottle. Clear gold, no head quite manages to form. Aroma of the barn, old lemons, oak, hints of grapes. Low carbonation. More obvious grapes in the taste but they obscure the funk a bit. Mellow, gently sour but with nice oak and bracken at the end. More of the lambic flavours escape at the end. Better than the old Vigneronne but still not a big favourite.
