A tri-blend of vintages from our barrel room produced a perfect balance of stone fruit, tartness and acidity. Mineral characteristics with apricot on the nose and after taste.

Tasting at Matt's, bottle
Cloudy dark blond colour. Smell of glue, ripe stone fruit (rotting?), acetone. There's some residual sweetness, stone fruit juice, and a lot of acetonee / nail polish.
Bordering unpleasant.

750mL bottle, pours a hazy bright golden orange with a small white head. Aroma is very funky, with a very nice fragrant wild yeast character, lots of oak, and some vinous notes. Flavour is puzzling, with a strange vegetal and chestnut notes… that's gotta be DMS (lots of tinned tomatoes), a bit of wild yeast, a bit of perfume, and pronounced acidity. That DMS isn't very pleasant.

750ml at Matt's amenity room. Appearance: murky golden with a white head. Aroma: acetone, some nice wild notes as well, but with some vegetable notes too. Taste: along the same lines. Overall: harsh, not elegant, good try, probably, but there is still a long way to go.

This has a cloudy sort of lambicy appearance, not dull, but a bit flat-looking. On the palate, it's a bit funny, like acetic, tinned tomatoes, so for me there's things in here I like, but definitely things I do not like. That cooked celery and tomatoes and stuff. Meh.
