Bottle thanks to Sherrice. Pours a hazy yellow gold with medium creamy white head that lasts. The aroma is strawberry seed, funk, oak. Thin mouth, brett, funk, lemon zest, light strawberry, light tartness, very nice.

Bottle at Saraveza Farmhouse Festival, pours a cloudy golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out notes of chardonnnay, with fresh strawberries, medium tartness and white wine. Flavour is dominated by the fresh strawberries upfront, followed by light tartness, oak and white wine. Complex as hell, everything is integrated wonderfully.
