0.75 l corked bottle from last trip to Graz with Marko. It poured hazy yellow body with medium iszed head. Sourish riped apple aroma, corky. Sweetish flavor, real apples, bit stale, wood, cork, comes to tart palate. Quite rich in body, quite sweet for a brut, having long finish with only a bit of sourness. Very nice thing, one of the better ciders I’ve had for sure.
