Barn Owl No. 7

◎ Aussehen

Deep garnet red with copper highlights, clear and bright despite its age in oak. The head is modest but persistent, laying down fine lacing on the glass as you drink. Carbonation is gentle and well-integrated, appropriate to the style's restrained nature.

◌ Aroma

Dominant raspberry and red-fruit aromatics leap from the glass, backed by soft oak and subtle vinous notes from two to three years of barrel aging. The acidity is present on the nose, adding brightness and complexity. Underlying tart cherry and faint dark-fruit undertones support the fruit-forward profile.

◐ Geschmack

Dry entry with immediate fruity sweetness that resolves into puckering tartness midway through. Raspberry seed tannins grip the palate, while oak contributes subtle wood spice and structure. The overall impression is dry and fermented, with lingering fruit acidity that prevents any cloying character.

◑ Abgang

Extended dry finish with persistent berry and wood tannins. The aftertaste remains tart and vinous, with a gentle astringency that recalls wild-fermented character.
