75cl bottle @ monthly tasting, Chez Sophie, Feb 24. Cheers Mike for this. Pours a hazed reddish pink (or was it pinkish red?).. pleasant aroma of gentle mixed berries, wild yeast. Flavour profile isn't massively sour, presenting a wild saison feel with soft fruity flourishes.. mixed red berries to the fore.. decent sipper, but more fruit and barrel definition would've been welcome.

Seems a bit timid to be masquerading as a Saison
