Interesting enough that I went back for another tasting later in the week. Fizzy yellow/orange body. Gently hazed pour. Smells of murky & mellow apple flesh, wet soil/ash, & misbehaving yeast. Earthy/mushroom flavors. Minerally. Juicy, muddled, almost apple sauce-like texture & sweetness. Half tart. Very tangy/a bit off(in a good way). Soft carbonation, heavy feel. Eventual dry, fruity finish.

Bottle from Le Bon Marché, Paris, vintage 2004.
The label for this vintage is orange and grey, and it has an alcohol content of 7%.
It has a beautiful golden color, with a small collar of bubbles around the glass. It has at first a nice aroma of mature apples; the mouthfeel is quite dry, there is some apple flavor, and a light astringency at the end. Well balanced, but not exciting.
