Beer 365- #224 Brasserie Dubuisson Scaldis Prestige de Nuits
Pours a hazy brown with a dark red tint. Nose is a nice blend of, sweet/tart fruit, oak, spice, vanilla, yeast. The mouth is light and crisp with carbonation reminiscent of Champagne. Flavors are very complex. Oak, tart fruit, yeast, plum, raisin, bready malt, nice warming finish. (13%ABV)
(FYI this is Brasserie Dubuisson's Scaldis Noel aged for six months in burgundy barrels from the Nuits St Georges Vineyard. It retails for $46 (ouch!) per 750ml bottle. It went really well with a leftover turkey sandwich)
