11 September 2021. At Summer Belgian Beer Geek Gathering. Many thanks, Klaas & Liesbeth, cheers to the whole crew!

Vintage 2020. Hazy red, thin, pink head. Aroma of sour cherry, blue grape, lemon peel, rhubarb, earth, old raspberry coulis, bit dirty. Taste has sour cherry, grape & lemon, somewhat funky with vinegar touch. Tart, red-fruity finish, earthy & acidic with obvious woody tannins. Medium body, slick texture, soft carbonation. Very vinous and that's an achievement, but a bit too much to my taste.

Pours dark purple, small white head. Scent is soft, fruity grapes. Not to rich on the lambic character. Taste is very mellow, easy drinker. Soft tartness. Full grapes (fruity) , low tartness. Nice!

Bottle @ Belgian Summer Gathering Sept' 21, Evergem. Merci Tim, Anno 2020. Bottled 22/11/2020.
Couleur acajou, quais pourpre, col léger rosé.
Arôme sur des effluves plaisantes fruitées - raisin marqué, rétro finement fleuri avec une touche de funk.

Palais est marqué par le fruité, léger fruit noir, raisin, funk, citrique léger, le caractère 'blend' reste correct sans vraiment oscillé sur une approche lambic. Je ne sais d'ailleurs pas les lambics utilisés dans ce blend. On reprend un peu la base de Bokkereyder - petite qté, difficile à trouver pour un prix de fou - résultat correct mais sûrement sans valoir le prix d'une bouteille.

Another Bofkont grape lambic, this time with the dark, deep German Dornfelder variety; sampled at Wild in Groningen. Pale lilac, moussy, open but otherwise stable head on a dark wine red beer with glowing fuchsia hue, clear initially, misty with sediment. Aroma of halfsweet and 'dark' Dornfelder juice, cassis, blue plums, vanilla-like oak, sweat, minerals, Camembert cheese, lambrusco, blueberries. Crisp onset, softish malic acidity, apple- and blueberry-like next to the evident 'grapeyness' itself, finely tingling lambrusco-like carbonation, smooth vinous mouthfeel; supple bready core, completely soaked in grape with that dark berry-like fleshiness to it, grape skin and wood tannins becoming quite strong in the end (more so than in the Merlot version) with a clear oakiness and light herbal aspects finishing things off. Complex, dry but still juicy, bit spicy grape lambic, indeed very reminiscent of the Dornfelder lambics 3 Fonteinen made in their Twists of Fate series; a bit more astringent and demanding than the lovely smooth Merlot version perhaps, but still remaining gentle and elegant. Bofkont deserves the hype, as far as I am concerned - if only these bottles weren't so damn hard to find.

My first Bofkont, lucky me. Gorgeous deep red, dark pink head. Smells grapey. Taste is lightly sour, and very dry. The grapes come through well, and there's something lightly meaty in there as well. Interesting, fun, tasty!
