Vigneronne (2016)

Lambic - Fruit

The name Vigneronne Cantillon was given in 1987. This name reminds us that, while it belongs to the beer patrimony, the spontaneous fermentation, the ageing in the barrels for several years and the addition of grapes make it a distant cousin of certain white wines. In spite of its success, the Vigneronne represents less than 5% of the total production of the Cantillon brewery. In order to obtain grapes which are as mature as possible, we buy them at the end of the season. Every year, 1000 kilos of white italian grapes are delivered at the Cantillon brewery in the beginning of October.

Maybe it’s the season, maybe it’s having spent 24 hours in the hospital with a kid with appendicitis … or maybe it’s possible this October ‘16 bottle is drinking perfectly right now.

Ah wow! Encore meilleure qu'en 2019 si c'est possible. Nez de mandarine surtout. Bouche sur l'agrume encore ainsi qu'une petite acidité bien agréable. Magnifique avec le repas coréen

Very tasty, pretty tart, a bit oily. Has carb but it quickly dissipates. Definitely tastes like aged Cantillon fruited lambic! Didn’t realize 2016 was 8 years old already. Old balls 👴🏻 ⚽️ 🏀

I didn’t care for this in 2018 and it’s stunning now. Soft, juicy grape, not overly sour. Good choice for doming a bottle with Liz tonight.

Odd that the fruit seems less prominent in this one vs what I remember of the 2014. Probably my palate tonight
