Wednesday, April 21, 2021 - Opened two bottles both of which were loaded with Brett. Typically I'm all about but this was so powerful I couldn't get any fruit off the wine. Would not recommend if this is producer driven and not a bad couple bottles

Even if I gave it credit and called it bacon that doesnt make sense with Cab/Cab franc blend...

It’s my understanding that it’s a highly individual genetic/sensory predisposition situation with some of us having heightened sensitivity to even low levels of Brettanomyces.
