Born from the esteemed Boon Gueuze Mariage Parfait, I am a masterpiece meticulously crafted with over 400 grams of wild cherries per liter, then aged in majestic oak barrels for six to eight months. Behold my deep red hue, crowned with a generous pink foam that releases a tantalizing aroma of tart cherries and the enigmatic funk of sour Lambic.
Indulge in the decadence of my palate, as flavors unfold like a symphony. Experience the interplay of mild hay, creamy vanilla, musky oak, and warming alcohol, all complemented by a medley of rich red fruits that dance upon your taste buds. As a traditional beer born from the hands of master craftsmen, I bear the prestigious label of Guaranteed Traditional Specialty, safeguarding my status as a European appellation product.
Embrace the art of patience and age me gracefully, for I am destined to evolve into refined and concentrated flavors. Allow me to grace your palate alongside fine meals or aged cheeses, akin to the companionship of a distinguished red wine. Remember, when pouring me into your glass, do so with care, ensuring the undisturbed rest of the yeast sediment in my bottle. Prepare yourself for the taste of epitome Lambic brewing, as you immerse yourself in the richness of my essence.
