A mixed culture dark sour referemented with impossible amounts of hand crushed Okanagan cherries in freshly emptied Syrah casks. Straddling the line between a velvety rich cherry wine and an agressively fruit-forward oak fermented sour, the nectar contained within is fleeting and ephemeral.

500mL bottle, pours a deep dark mahogany / reddish brown with a small pinkish tan head. Nose is loaded with red wine barrels, plenty of dark cherries, and some wild yeast. Flavour is loaded with intense red wine barrels upfront, followed by dry tart dark red cherries, and a touch of wild yeast. The wine barrels dominate, with the cherries further deep. A little bit of alcohol harshness detracts a little. Interesting concoction -- not overly complex or cohesive, but pleasant enough.
