Dried strawberry smell bursts from the bottle, with table apples accompanying. Pours attractive peach colour, with what looks like considerable carbonation, but which settles down to the point of being very light in the mouth. Bouquet doesn’t give much more away in the glass. Bitterness is forward in the flavour, living long but at a low intensity. The flavours are more or less per the aroma, but the apples embitter in the finish, while elderflower and later dry grapes develop alongside a minerally and puckery finish. The texture is just the right side of watery, but lacks bite, although the tannins meld nicely with the minerality. There’s not a great deal happening with this, but if you’re truly stuck for other options, it is at least clean, refreshing, and inoffensively safe.
