Saison 7.1 º

Chien Bleu

This Saison offers a vibrant sensory journey, blending rustic farmhouse charm with sophisticated vinous depth. A striking rosé hue introduces a complex bouquet where the peppery phenols of the yeast meet the bright, red berry lift of Gamay and the grassy, citrusy edges of Sauvignon Blanc pomace. The barrel-aged component introduces a whisper of oak and structured tannins that ground the effervescent, bone-dry palate. Expect a medley of wild strawberry and gooseberry flavors, followed by a crisp, hoppy finish that highlights the beer's lively carbonation and lean, refreshing structure, staying true to its highly attenuated origins while embracing a modern hybrid character.

Appearance. Deep pink to light ruby with copper highlights; fine-beaded, off-white to pale pink head with excellent retention and lacing; slight haze from pomace and barrel aging.

Aroma. High intensity; vinous notes of red currants and crushed berries from Gamay; citrusy gooseberry and white grape from Sauvignon Blanc; peppery yeast phenols and a faint, earthy hop spice with subtle, dry oak.

Taste. Initial burst of tart red fruit and vinous acidity; mid-palate reveals grainy malt and peppery spice; hop flavor is earthy and floral with moderate bitterness; finishes bone-dry with a lingering, tannic wine-like quality and a clean, spicy aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with a highly effervescent, prickly carbonation; noticeable but smooth alcohol warmth; slight tannic astringency from grape skins and barrel aging adds structure.
