Aus der Flasche (bbe 28.02.2028) im 2025-07 getrunken. Dieses rote Cider/Wein-Hybrid kommt mit wechelnden, schrägen medizinischen und anorganischen Aromen daher. Daher taucht dann ein Apfelaroma auf. Am Gaumen findet man ein bitteres Apfelaroma wo man eine Weile braucht, um sich an diese eher ungewöhnlich Apfelaromen zu gewöhnen. Dann aber wird es aber richtig gut. Spannender Hybrid!

Sample @ RedDot winebar. Unclear, pinkish body under a small white head. Aroma is mostly apple cider with a hint of red berries. Taste begins like a weak cider, then some subdued nuances appears, smoke, earth, beets and tannins. Medium body with light aftertaste. This is a strange thing, some interesting elements going on but not a favorite.

Bottle, 75cl wine corked. A lightly hazy red drink with a few white bubbles. The aroma is quite vinous, berryish, with a touch of cellar and funk. Carrot and beet root notes and a good dash of cellar. It's tart and full bodied, lightly carbonated, with a touch of tannins. Lightly vinous flavor with a good dash of apple. Cellar, some root vegetables, funk and tannins. Lasting finish with red wine, tannins and apple. Too weird, but not bad. 241107

Bottle shared. Hazy light red. Huge dank cellar funk, oak, soft cow dung, soft sweet grapes, sweet apple too. Under medium sweet and bitter. Medium bodied, lots of leathery and dry oak tannins which make it quite dry. Interesting!
