Cantillon - Grand Cru Bruocsella 2019 2020 750ml
*Limited to 1 bottle per person*
"Lambic Grand Cru Bruocsella Cantillon is a Lambic matured for three years in oak barrels and selected for its exceptional qualities of color, bouquet and aromas. From its golden yellow, luminous, slightly amber hue, its aroma of mixed apple and honey, the Grand Cru Bruocsella draws its main powers of seduction. Its taste qualities are due to its raw character, its almost imperceptible sweet acidity. Its long shelf life gives its bouquet fine nuances of toast which, according to some, resembles the white Burgundian grape variety "Chardonnay".
This aristocratic beer is to our national beverage what Mouton-Rothschild, Petrus or Romanée-Conti represent to wines. Like these jewels of taste, Lambic Grand Cru Bruocsella is not drunk but savored when tasting and can accompany the most refined dishes. It enhances all steamed dishes with its subtleties, discreetly highlights the taste of fish and shellfish, and supports the most fragrant charcuterie with its robustness. It is fabulous as a counterpoint to sauerkraut.
The Grand Cru Bruocsella Cantillon is a very long-lasting beer with an evolving taste. We recommend tasting this old Lambic in wine glasses (tasting type). Since there is no secondary fermentation in the bottle, Bruocsella is a flat, non-sparkling beer. The beer will evolve over time. Store are serve at cellar temperature (12-15°C). To be consumed preferably within 20 years after the bottling date." - Cantillon
