Intro: A 750ml corked and caged bottle, with a neck label of 2022-2023, and a best before date of 1st February 2033. Poured into a Tilquin stemmed glass.
Appearance: A lightly hazy pinkish orange colour with a one finger white head that dissipated fairly quickly to a ring around the glass, while leaving only sparse lacing.
Aroma: Sparkly citric, candied mixed berries, fruity red to rose vinous, red wine grapes, grape skin, blueberries, lemon zest, 7-Up, with light woody notes and a touch of funk.
Taste: Lightly sour, candied sour mixed berries, blackcurrant, rose wine, red wine grapes, grape skin, lemon, lemon zest, with light notes of wood and funk.
Mouthfeel: Medium bodied with moderate carbonation.
Overall: It may not be very complex, but the aroma and flavours just work for me, and I enjoyed it a lot.
