Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Cherry
◎ Appearance
A pale, luminous straw colour with excellent clarity and fine carbonation that catches the light. The head forms quickly and clings to the glass with delicate persistence, leaving thin trails of lacing as you drink.
◌ Aroma
The nose leads with ripe morello cherry—bright and stone-fruited rather than jammy. Beneath lies a gentle tartness and a subtle mineral quality, with hints of sea salt lifting the fruit without dominating. Clean fermentation allows the adjuncts to shine without yeast-driven funk.
◐ Taste
Entry is sweetly fruited, with the cherry character rolling across the palate in waves. A gentle sourness builds through the mid-palate, balancing the initial sweetness with crisp acidity. The savoury salt element emerges as a supporting note, preventing cloying and adding a seawater-like complexity to the finish.
◑ Finish
Short to medium, clean and crisp. The aftertaste is dry with lingering salt minerality and a whisper of tart cherry, inviting the next sip.
