Look - Pours a transparent dark purple with a fleeting pink fizzy head.
Smell - Musty grape hits my nose initially with a light barnyard funk. A light acidity is also present in the aroma.
Taste - A light sour/tart sensation up front with juicy grape following it up. The finish is dry and tannic with spicy oak, leather, and some wet hay funk lingering.
Feel - Lightly acidic feeling that builds in intensity before a very dry finish, resulting in a bit of cat tongue.
Overall - This is a very good farmhouse ale whose use of petit verdot grapes forces you to think of a dry red. It's effervescent quality lightens it up and while the fleeting grape sweetness kept me wanting another sip.
