DESCRIPTION

An extremely special bottle we are so excited to stock. Beer royalty Jean Van Roy of Brasserie Cantillon collaborate with Antonio and Daniela of Cantina Giardino. A three year old lambic is infused with three hundred grams per litre of Aglianico grapes, before a young lambic is added to cause a second fermentation in the bottle. It's a pale shade of sunset with a cascade of sour, bitter and earthy notes, bringing rare refreshment, complexity and intrigue.

 

Grapes: Aglianico
Place: Irpinia, Campania
ABV: 6.5%
Colour: Red (Sour beer)
Vintage: NV

PRODUCER PROFILE

Brasserie-Brouwerij Cantillon is a small Belgian traditional family brewery based in Anderlecht, Brussels. Cantillon was founded in 1900 and brews exclusively lambic beers.

Antonio and Daniela De Gruttola seek out old vineyards in Irpinia, high in the hills of Campania. They champion and preserve the region’s native varietals, old vines and an age old way of tending them. 

The vines are set at altitude and are planted over the region’s vibrant volcanic soils. Vineyard work is done by hand, organically and a combination of great farming and low yields results in healthy, characterful fruit. In the cantina, Antonio takes a no-nonsense approach with the intention of letting this terroir express itself in full. The grapes ferment naturally without temperature control and fermentation can continue for months. 

Wines are raised in a combination of terracotta amphorae and large casks made from local woods and bottled unfiltered, with no additions at all. The resulting wines are singular, vivid expressions of grape and place.
