Cantillon Bruocsella 1900 Grand Cru

2001 vintage. Had it in June 2005. A shock! Bad shock. Does not taste or feel Cantillon. Hope it’s just this bottle: infected or wrong handling. Gives a leather and dusty aroma. Peach color. Looks dead, has no appeal. A tee-leaf in the flavor at first. Dusty wood in the finish. Dusty and plain mouthfeel. Some astringency.

Bottle, vintage 2002, RBESG 2005 Grand Tasting. Golden to amber colour, no head. Overwhelming barnyard aroma, hints of lemons too. Sour flavour with lemony notes.

750 mL from ClarkVV. Pours hazy orangy gold with no head. Oak and musty malt, yeast (straw) aromas with fruity lemon notes. Sour and tart lemon acidic mace flavor with musty oak notes. Light and fizzy palate, almost chalky.

Hazy pale yellow, no head. Citric, sour yeasty nose. Acidic citrus/grape flavour with some notes of unripe fruits. Has a complex sweetness too in finish.

Bottled @RBESG’05 (vintage 2002)
Yellow, a bit hazy, no head. Sour, lambic nose. Sour, earthy, "refreshing". "Basic" high-quality unblended.

light orange color with almost no head. sour, skunk aroma with a noticeable woodiness. tart tast, not really sour, but tart. woody almost orange flavor with some lingering grape echos. a metallic pear taste also arrises in this. and the last taste of this had some weird chocolate like flavor in it.

Courtesy of Pailhead. Light golden in color with no head. Very nice musty/sour aroma. Initial flavor is all sour lemon-esque, little vinegar through the middle, but fades to nothing quickly. A little thin. Underpar for these guys.

Just a mellow cantillon sounress and oak flavour, but well done on that account. Went well went varied with a doppleback and a mead. Cloudy yellow with no lace. Medium mouthfeel with acid that was tolerable. tart, dry finish.
