had this at ACBF. Draught...didn’t know it was a new entry. Very sour, dark raisin color. aroma was acidic, lemon and lime, a lot of dessert wine, old grapes, some noble rot with more citrus. Taste is not too bad. tart, very sour as usual but a lot of oak, wood, grape and more wine like tastes. nice.

33CL bottle consumed today. usa distro Dark red maroon color, thin appearance, almost no head. Smells like balsamic vinegar and lemon juice with grapes and prune juice. Well, this is incredibly sour…like lemon juice put into a raisin and prune and blended with oak chips. This is very sour. intense. lemon juice, prunes, kiwi sour, peaches. oak wine tannins, really interesting but insanely sour.

Sampled draft @ ACBF 2015. Dark brown, reddish, little head. Nose is odd, vinegar, lightly rotting fruits mixed with sweet cherry juice. Taste is rotting cherry juice, malty, lots of cherry in here, old wood, thick sweet red wine, light balsamic vinegar mixed with some sweetness,… Bit thick. Odd mix of flavours but not bad, odd but interesting. (Thanks for sharing people!!!)
