750ml @ SF shared with almost full gang (missing two biggest guys only).
Aroma: minerally, like a lambic, nice funk, fruity.
Taste: along the same lines, quite aggressive, a lot of grapes skins.
Overall: good one.

750mL bottle, pours a cloudy orange with a small white head. Aroma has a lot of earthy funk, musty white wine grape skins, and a bit of petrol. Flavour is along the same lines, with lots of petroleum, white wine grape skins, earthy funk, and some rustic notes. Very complex funkiness/bugginess, subtle grape that has probably faded with age. Excellent.

Some haze. The aroma has a fair bit of riesling, a bit of bugginess and slight yeastiness and a touch of barrel. On the palate, it's got a lot of barrel, medium bugginess, with a nice riesling character. There's medium bitterness and it finishes with a bit of bitterness. Oh, this is good. Well-balanced, complex.

Poured from 750mL bottle (7/7% abv; bb 30/03/2022; Lot 2019/03/03). Hazed yellow gold with small white head. Muted riesling grapes, very feint lacto character, finish is a touch muted, dry-ish. Okay.

750mL bottle. Pours murky blonde with a white head. Nice buggy yeast and musty grape skins on the nose. Flavour has a musty yeast expression, soft white wine grapes, buggy. Nice complex yeast expression, grape skins adding a nice layer as well. Fantastic.

Shared at the antidoot tasting in Ghent, thnx to Tom ! Didnt take much notes at the time between ratebeer and brewver. This one was very balanced. Grape forward, but not overpoweringly so.
