Vignerrone (2024) LVD

Lacks in tartness and fruitiness, kinda like the Fou Foune '22. It is quite sweet and juicy though. Grapes and white wine notes, which would go better with a more dry mouthfeel. Lesser than previous years.

Fou’ Foune (2023) LVD

Goed jaar. Een stuk lichter van smaak dan 2022. Verfrissend en doordrinkbaar, maar ook enorm fruitig met abrikozen en perzik. Een wrang randje. Deze gaat het goed doen de komende jaren.

Tarlantillon LVD

Wow, easily one of the best Cantillons I've ever had! It's a blend from Pinot Blanc, Pinot Noir and Chardonnay wines with 2 year old Lambic.. Very Lambic forward with subtle vinous notes and grapes! Quite acidic and juicy, but also refreshing..

Compared to the wine, which is very good by the way! The grapes are very recognisable in the lambic, a lot less dry, a little bit more sweet, vinous and a nice base profile! I would like to say it's a bit better than the 2021.. 4,25+

Fou’ Foune (2021) LVD

In vergelijking met '22, waarbij meteen duidelijk is dat deze stukken beter is! Lichter en meer koolzuur, waardoor deze minder zwaar aanvoelt en een stuk verfrissender is.. Het fruit is ook beter aanwezig met toevoeging van ander steenfruit! #kraambezoek

Definitely one of the lesser Fou's in terms of sheer juicy- and tartness.. I know Fou needs a year or two to really shine, but something is a little off with this blend.. Less acidity and tart apricot flavour, but by any means it's not bad!

Sophia Lambic (2020) LVD

Sweet and also quite dry.. It's vinous like a good white wine with an almost creamy body! In taste there are still some red apple notes but definitely no applesauce like the previous batches.. A lot more balance between fruits like nectarine and grapes!

Cantillo Cuvée Des Champions (2021) LVD

Ik hou bij voorbaat al van die gehopte lambiek, dus dit is een makkelijke win voor mij, maar die Engelse hops maken 'm net dat tikkeltje beter dan bijvoorbeeld de CSG! Bloemig, stevig gehopt, citrus, citroen en een mooie carbonatie!

Saint Lamvinus (2018) LVD

Inmiddels alweer een paar jaartjes ouder wat 'm heel zacht en doordrinkbaar maakt! Heerlijke Merlot en Cabernet druiven en een behoorlijk vineuze dronk! De droogheid valt daarentegen heel erg mee en er is een mooie balans met de lambiek.. Beter dan vers!

LCI.. Ik vermoed dat deze wat te vers is, al betekend dat gelukkig niet dat dit een zwavelbommetje is! Vers rabarbersap, wat juicy en een aanhoudend zoetje met een zachte droogheid! Een stuk zuurder dan de meeste Cantillon en mist daardoor aan balans..

Lambic Jaune (2016) LVD

Predecessor of La Vie Est Belge: Lambic Jaune! Great lambic, with a soft carbonation! The 2016 variant was to reproduce the 2014 experiments which would later turn out to get the current name.. Loads of wood, subtle grape and citrus notes!
