Intro: A 750ml corked and caged bottle, 2021 vintage. Poured into a Tilquin stemmed glass.
Appearance: A hazy golden orange colour, with a two finger white head that had good retention, while leaving some nice lacing.
Aroma: Lightly tart, sweet apricot, apricot jammy, orange zest, funky, oak, dried grass.
Taste: Sweet juicy apricot, orange zest, lemon cordial, oak, with light funky notes.
Mouthfeel: Medium bodied with moderate carbonation.
Overall: Super juicy, refreshing, and just so easy to drink. It’s thirst quenching, and I could just keep drinking this over and over again.
