Clear 375ml bottle from the Avl tasting room. Goblet @home. Very active, borderline bottle bomb. Hazy orange, creamy quick-hitting mousse. Dusty, earthy, fresh mulch, dried pineapple, orange, yogurt & mellow bittersweet apples. Creamy, mellow bittersweet skin, pear funk, restrained acidity, pinching tartness that recedes quickly. Shy earthy funk, leafy, faint sweetness on the finish. Constant bubbly, yeasty, a little Aspirin. Delicious. Must be a fresh bottle.
