Aroma

The nose is dominated by fresh raspberry aromatics with bright, clean acidity. Subtle floral notes emerge beneath the fruit, while the overall character remains crisp and uncluttered, free from fermentation artifacts or oxidative complexity.

Taste

Tartness and berry character drive the palate in equal measure, delivering a refreshing, tart entry that maintains its clarity through the mid-palate. The low bitterness (10 IBU) recedes gracefully, allowing the clean fruit expression and dry finish to take precedence without astringency.
