Vintage 2012, bottled on 07/31/12.
Poured into a tulip.

Appearance
Hazy copper with red highlights. About 1 finger of head that recedes very quickly.

Nose
Black cherry, oak, sawdust, Sweet Tarts and vinegar.

Taste
Moderately sour upfront with lactic acid, lemon juice and sour pie cherries. Black cherry, maraschino cherry juice and concord grape jelly. The Cabernet Sauvignon shines through towards the back along with some very bready pie crust. Finishes with naked oak and sawdust.

Mouthfeel
Medium bodied, crisp, clean and moderately sour.

Overall
Perfect balance between the sourness, cherries, wine and oak. Really nicely put together. This is an excellent Oud Bruin.

22oz bottle into LA teku glass. Thanks Jay! Bottled 7/31/2012.

A: Pours a deep brown cola color with three fingers of foamy short-lived tan head that faded into a faint collar.
S: Vinous barrel notes are prominent, tart tannins, faint date, caramel and honey, with dark cherry skins and a splash of cranberry juice. Dry smelling.
T: Milder than the nose. Buttery and vinous barrel, caramel, cranberry juice, leather, with dark cherry juice and skins in the finish.
M: Dry but not crazy, medium body, low splashy carbonation with a bit of sharp acidic bite.
O: Delicious, not as good as Juliet or some of their others sours but a great and drinkable Flanders. Thanks again, jbck109.
