Bottle from the brewery. 2021 harvest. Med-full body, medium carbonation. Medium bitterness, med-light warmth - nicely rounded though, not bothersome. Med-light sweetness. Moderate raisins, dried fruits overall, but lots of the grapes. I can not say I get particularly the winey character, I do not know xynisteri. But it is quite fruity. And holding up pretty well too, after so long time. Quite good overall.

Bottle from the brewery. Medium body, medium carbonation. Malt-centered, with moderate caramel, coffee, light chocolate, light deep roast astringency. Medium bitterness, light sweetness, rather dry, even though with sweetish flavours. Not great, but good, solid, also kinda in style, even if not my favourite interpretation.
