Bottle from Condorelli, Agrigento; L29262, bb 30/06/14
Cloudy brown color, with large head, loud cap explosion (no gushing though), and floaters. Aroma of white sugar, and light wine, not fruity/perfumy as expected. The mouthfeel is too much carbonated, rather dry, with not much malt or zibibbo flavor, evident yeast instead, and light liquorice. Also the alcohol is clearly present (probably higher than 8.5%).
I suspect that it refermented in the bottle and the final result is no longer what was in the brewer’s plans.
