One of the nastiest (read: really good) blends to come out of our barrel program for some time. It’s a melange of 2 to 2.5 year old barrel aged saisons aged on Montmorency sour cherries, farmhouse saison aged on cab franc skins for 3 months and ~8% Riesling.

(Bottle sample @ Witchstock 2018, Toronto, Sept 29/18) Pours nearly clear bright pale red with a small head. Notes of soft tart cherry, red grapes, mixed berries, wine, some flowers, moderate oak, light earthy funk, softly sweet, light tartness, but dry on the whole and especially into the finish with some fruit skin and barrel tannin. Medium body and fairly soft carbonation. A more layered but perhaps slightly more unfocused beer-wine hybrid, but yet again excellent from Burdock.
