Saturday, February 4, 2023 - Chateau Biawak Chapter 9: SONOMAvatar - The way of water (Chateau Biawak, Singapore): 15.1% ABV. For this wine, the whole berries undergo a long cool fermentation to generate skin contact and expose fruit character, and are fermented with wild yeast.10 months in 75% new French oak.

Flavours are integrated and acids have softened. Fruit has faded but one can still detect red raspberry, the sous bois or forest floor, brambly fruit as well like blackberries, and these dried cranberries, almost like an aged berry cake if there was such a thing. I could not tell this was 15.1% ABV.
