On tap at Avling, pours a clear dark amber warhead a small white head. Aroma has spicy, floral notes upfront, with a touch of musty grape skins, and light bugginess. Flavour is uniquely complex, with lots of floral spiciness from the marigolds, gentle wine grape must, and some bugginess. Floral, spicy, dry. This really works.

Sort of murky pale, but I got the dregs pour. Not much head. The aroma is honeyish and floral. On the palate, a bit dry, light tartness. The grapes don't lend much sweetness, the flowers are not as pronounced on the palate. Decent, but I wish the flavour was up to matching the aroma.

Poured from 375mL bottle. Hazy yellow gold with small white head. Grape skins, feint hint of floral note, there's a bit of muted blandness on the taste as compared to the nose.
