For this small batch of Druif, we had the honour to work with the renowned Jean-Pierre Robinot. For this field blend, we macerated destemmed grapes for six months on jonge lambik in a wooden barrel. The grapes underwent a short cold maceration just before. We used both Pinot D’Aunis (85%) and Chenin Blanc (15%) grapes (because JP said so), both typical to the Loire region. Afterwards, we blended with some two-year old lambik, rendering the weighted average age upon bottling to over 15 months. The final fruit intensity 323 grams of grapes per litre of Druif. All grains used in the nine different lambikken were all sourced from Pajottenland. Merci Thea!!

Bottle at home. Clear dark golden with short lasting head. Lots of oak, yoghurt, kiwi, spicy grapes, lemon zest, peppery, leather, soft bread crust. Solid soir, medium sweet. Full bodied. Nice stuff, the grapes are not overpowering at all here.

750mL bottle at Moeder Lambic Fontainas, pours an opaque dull peachy orange, almost brownish, with a small white head. Aroma has musty grape skins, with moderate earthiness, low acidity, and a touch of funk. Flavour has musty, earthy grape skins, moderate funk, and a touch of acidity. Unusual for a Druif but this works well.
