Ammonite Vinifera IV - Sauvignon
This complex Brett Beer showcases the elegance of Sancerre Sauvignon grapes through a spontaneous fermentation lens. Aromatically, it leads with vibrant notes of gooseberry, lime zest, and wet flint, underpinned by a sophisticated barnyard funk and aged hay. The year spent in Pinot Noir casks introduces subtle oak tannins and a whisper of red berry skin, which melds seamlessly with the bright, vinous acidity of the grapes. On the palate, it is exceptionally dry and effervescent, delivering a clean, mineral-driven finish that reflects the "Vinification intégrale" process. It is a harmonious marriage of wild ale complexity and refined French viticulture.
Appearance. Pale straw to deep gold with a slight hazy luminescence; pours with a fine-beaded white head that dissipates into a thin, persistent collar.
Aroma. Moderate to high intensity; distinctive Sauvignon grape character of passionfruit and crushed currant leaf; earthy funk suggests damp straw and leather; subtle vinous oak and a hint of stone fruit esters.
Taste. Initial impression is bone dry and brightly acidic; flavors of green grape, lime, and mineral flint dominate; secondary notes of toasted oak and light tannins from the Pinot Noir cask; Brett character is well-integrated, providing an earthy complexity; finish is crisp and lingeringly dry.
Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with a prickly, high carbonation; very low tannin-driven astringency from grape skins and oak; clean, refreshing mouthfeel with no significant alcohol warmth.
