Bottle from some local wine shop, I forgot which; not important. Huge Schneider Weiss glass. Bottle cap releases with a puff of smoke. Pours out like a frosty tall one. Lingering head, nearly clear pale amber body. Yeast, bubblegum, rind, sharp apples, salt. Taste is a lot like Pinot Grigio, acidic, fruity & strong enough to pass for wine. Leafy & bittersweet at the end makes me reconsider that. A little saline, pepper & more yeast rounds it out. Solidly dry. Very boozy. Not quite quaffable sadly.
