Bottomless magnum from Chambers St. Wines. Duvel tulip. Mostly clear except for a little haze. Looks like iced tea if you ignore the fizz. Smell is of earthy wet leaves, calcium & macerated bittersweet apples. Dry, murky, browned apples, tannic skin, tea astringency, moderate barnyard/wild fermentation funk, leaning more earthy & flat. Low acid, buried sharpness, & a slightly coarse body, with lingering dryness despite it’s juicy quality. A faint tartness rings now & again to keep things moving. Really enjoyable. Admittedly, I could not finish the whole bottle, as most of us already had more then a few by then. Good times overshadowing the just okay food being the usual culprit.

Hazy amber with foamy white head. Aroma is cinnamon, apple, cream, raisins, typical apfelstrudel, slight sulfur. Salted olives. Taste is astringent tannins, slight sweet, mostly bitter. Chalky finish. Ok. I cannot appreciate all this chalky and tanninic stuff.

Bottle. Clear golden color with white head. Aroma is apple skin, red apples, funky barnyard, custard. Taste is apple skin, funky, rustic, dry, a touch mealy, tannic, manure. Oily mouthfeel with sparkly carbonation. Fantastic Cidre, it is very rustic and sweet and well-balanced at the same time, and still very dry.

750mL bottle, pours a cloudy golden orange with a small white head. Nose is very funky, with brett, oak and loads of apples, only lightly acidic. Flavour is very complex, with dry apples with light acidity, moderate sweetness, and funky brett notes. Very cohesive, with a bone dry finish that still retains sweetness. Excellent stuff.
