Sobremesa Fermentary & Blendery - Encontro Saison 6.3% 750ml Bottle
Sobremesa Fermentary & Blendery
Regular price $35.00
This is a collaboration with Minim Wines.
This blend contained two components:
- 50% Saison fermented in a puncheon (3 months old)
- 50% Saison matured in a hogshead (14 months old)
This was racked on top of the grapes and left to macerate for 4 months.
On blending day they pressed the residual grapes and added in a small portion of pressings for texture.
Aromas of blackberry, strawberries & tomato leaf. Lots of primary fruit character up front intertwined with a lovely leathery funk.
The palate lends to black currants, plum & Montmorency sour cherries.
Grippy, weighty & tannic while still maintaining a vibrancy that is inviting.
