Bottle from Corti Bros. Pours rather hazy gold with a transient white head. Aroma is moderately sour and red berry. With wood. Med body at least. Flavor is Brett, sort of cabernet, slightly musty wood. It is sour, approaching, but not getting too close, to vinegar. Maybe that's an overstatement. The grape part actually may be moderating the sourness. More sour than many, but far from mouth wrenching. Keeps the attention!

Tap. Pours lightly hazy amber, small white head, good staying power and nice lacing. Aroma is lacto, nail polish remover, oak, vinous notes, grapey. Flavor is really tart, light plus funk, oak tannins, acetone, red grapes. Medium body, soft mouthfeel.
