Bottle Etre Gourmet 2024-06-08 Göteborg , vintage 2019 AR: sour dry apples, red apples AP: bronze clear, fizzy wee off white F: sour dry apples, red apples, oxide

375mL bottle with code L13211, drunk 12/6/23. Clear, bright maize-honey. Nose is quite interesting, though the first thing I get is the brett, followed by oak. But then it's a maze of apple and quince with a light bit of vegetal notes (probably just skin), as well as light pepper, gentle but ample acidity and more oak and vanilla on the finish. Sweet, soft, good acidity on the end, with a very curious, unique flavor profile that leaves my best description as vegetal with white pepper. I guess it's the quince, obviously. Juicy as all hell, sweet, but with ample balancing acidity and light oak/vanilla, as well. Lovely, as always.
