Very dense color from ruby to violet. Nose is full of jam blueberries, tobacco, coal, fig, silicon, balsamic. Acidity is still pretty high, tannins are plenty! — 8 years ago

DeRat is an amazing bar in Utrecht. Vast selection of sours. This one is quite peculiar. Get strawberry and burnt wood on the nose, then it hits you with powerful sourness that burns in the aftertaste, and finished with an interesting oak+butter taste. The guy pouring it separated the sediment, which surprisingly smells like char coal. Too many compounds here. — 10 years ago
