| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Oct 24, 2009 375ml bottle, bottled in 2008 and purchased at John’s Market. Deeper Rosé wine color with a Pepto light pink head that settles down to a slightly off white ring around the edge of the glass. Right away I pick up tart raspberries, cranberries, horse blanket, aspirin, and chalky oak. Slightly dry and sharp up front and then big blast of tart raspberry and vinegar. Not a ton of complexity to it and I would prefer to get a little more out of the berries. Maybe I drank it too fresh? MJGG (404), Montreal, Quebec, Canada
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Oct 24, 2009 Bouteille verte de 375 ml. Arômes de framboises, de chêne et de levures sauvages. Robe saumon, très légèrement trouble, effervescence faible et peu de mousse. En bouche, les framboises sont assez discrètes et sont accompagnées d’une touche lactique et acétique et de tanins de chêne. Finale acide et citronnée. Les fruits demeurent discrets, mais le lambic les supportant montre une très belle complexité. RCL (1457), Waltham, Massachusetts, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Oct 23, 2009 Tasted on tap. I neglected to inquire as to the age, but i would imagine it had a few years on it. Aroma has some fruit to it, but the flavor is all cutting acidity and bone dryness with raspberry on the finish.
