Bottle at Dageraad. Pours murky ruddy orange with a white head. Tons of musty, vinous notes on the nose. Flavour is full of earthy wild yeast and red wine grape skins; fairly juicy with some acidity and dry tannins. The profile is super vinous and tannic, great use of wine grapes. This is excellent.

Draft 5 oz pour at Garden Path, Bellingham. Reddish pink appearance, patchy head. Aroma is a slightly sweet grape and mixed berry. Gentle oak character, which is more noticeable on aroma than flavor. Tart front, with more of a smooth and relaxed wine grape finish. Funky thoughout. Very good.

Pale pink, med head. Light body, light acidity, mellow, but good fruit. Well balanced. Some of these garden paths are so delicate!

On tap at Garden Path - Bellingham, pours a hazy dark amber with a small white head. Aroma is very expressive, with lots of grape pomace, wild yeast, and a touch of oak. Flavour is moderately acidic, with lots of grape pomace, subdued wild yeast, and oak tannins. Dry, tannic, vinous and oaky. Excellent.
