Daniela and Antonio from Cantina Giardino sent us Greco grapes, a variety of white wine grapes.
These grapes underwent a 6 months pellicular maceration in an amphora.
The grapes were pressed and the marc was sent to the brewery and blended with a two year old Lambic.

Poured a mostly clear yellow color with a small white head. Aroma was light peaches, grapes, very light funk and grain. Light barrel, perhaps more bold than expected, but overall still very subtle. Light white wine. Light acidic notes.
