Chien Bleu Giotto II
1 Ratings
This complex Brett Beer is a masterclass in fruit-driven fermentation, blending vintages to create a multi-layered sensory experience. Deep vinous notes from Pinot Noir and Gamay grapes meld with the rich, jammy depth of prunes and the bright, tart acidity of cherry wine. The Brettanomyces provides a sophisticated rustic undercurrent of damp hay and soft leather, balancing the vibrant fruit intensity with an elegant, dry earthiness. As a refined wild-influenced ale, it offers a transition from juicy stone fruit to a crisp, slightly tannic finish, echoing the structural complexity of a fine natural wine while maintaining its distinctively funky and carbonated character.
Appearance. Deep garnet to dusky ruby-red with subtle violet highlights (SRM 22-26); moderate light-pink head with fair retention; slight haze is present from the significant fruit additions and yeast.
Aroma. High intensity; dominant aromas of dark cherry, ripe plum, and red grape must; moderate Brettanomyces character featuring aged leather, wet hay, and a touch of earthy spice; subtle vinous notes and floral esters; hop aroma is absent.
Taste. Initial impression of tart cherry and rich prune; mid-palate reveals dry Pinot Noir and Gamay grape skins; very low malt presence; very low bitterness; Brettanomyces contributes a dry, woody funk and light peppery spiciness; finish is bone-dry and lingering with fruit acids and a light tannic structure.
Mouthfeel. Medium-light body; moderate-high carbonation providing a lively sparkle; noticeable but well-integrated alcohol warmth; light tannic astringency from grape skins; crisp and highly attenuated.
