Bottle form their cider cellar sale. Week in the fridge, probably not quite settled. Lo-ball glass @home. Strong pour. Dusty gold, wisp of lingering lace, otherwise still. Smells of random macerated fruits, leaning orange/lemon/kiwi/white grape/crab apple. All very mild, but the total effect is perfume-y. Dominate sour, very gummy, punchy acid, lemon peel, cider vinegar. Bit tired of vinegar. Oxidation, but little funk. Lingering table grapes. Tastes like an apple-grape hybrid but isn't. Creamy finish. Itchy, good carbonation, strong for the abv, not quite dry. Good with food, okay as is.
