Aroma

Vivid strawberry aromatics dominate the nose with genuine fruit character, neither artificial nor cloying. Supporting notes of tart red berries and subtle citrus emerge from beneath, while the oak aging imparts whispers of vanilla and wood complexity. The spontaneous fermentation contributes delicate wild yeast and lacto-derived tartness to the aromatic profile.

Taste

The palate opens with luscious strawberry fruit that transitions into bright lacto acidity and refined sourness. Mid-palate reveals crisp, effervescent character with excellent balance between fruit sweetness and tart complexity, supported by clean oak integration. The low IBU allows fruit and fermentation character to shine without any harsh edges.
