‘Brutal'
Field blend, Magog, Quebec
A wildly unique and glowing ruby, unearthed from the richness of rural Quebec. Hybrid heroes Pinard & Filles, aka Catherine Belanger and Frederic Simon, are sitting pretty at the centre of Quebec’s enviable natural wine scene. They organically farm 2.2 hectares and fully embrace experimentation, minimal-intervention & zero sulphur additions. Kind of like the wine version of a long island iced tea (all the INGREDIENTS!), but pieced together from the tail end of 25 separate ferments to create one veritable master stock of roaring flavours, all fit 2000-piece-puzzle-like into one another. The last lees-y (aka yeasty) bits of each wine are added into a single amphora over the course of 1-1.5 years until full and mouthwateringly idiosyncratic as all heck. P&F’s ‘Brutal’ is your favourite antihero, your love of a cigarette in the morning & all the contradictions and hypocrisies that come with being human. KIWI, a whiff of blueberry compote, cooling herbs into coniferous earthiness, like hiding out high up in a tree during hide and seek & health food store tart cherry juice meeting confected, lightly oxygenated candied cherry sucker richness. Open whenever, wherever, you may never be ready for this wine, but NOW is the time to find out.
