Season 18|19 Blend No. 115 - Bottled 08/10/2019
For this specific Framboos we used summer raspberries. Which we macerated for three months. The one- and two-year old lambikken come from 3 barrels and 3 different brews. The final fruit intensity is 332 grams of raspberries per litre of Framboos. Some honey was added during bottling (2 grams per litre).
3 Fonteinen Framboos is the result of macerating hand-picked whole raspberries on young lambic for at least four months, in a proportion of one kilogram of fruit per litre of lambic. The raspberry lambic is then blended again with more young lambic to obtain a minimum intensity of 35% fruit, and is bottled immediately afterwards. These bottles are then stored in our cellars for at least five months so that the raspberry lambic can develop into a beautiful, traditional, and refined Framboos. With an abundant forest fruit nose as it warms in the glass, 3 Fonteinen Framboos will age perfectly but may lose some of the vibrant colours and forest fruit aromas. This unfiltered and unpasteurised lambic is all-natural with no artifcial juices, syrups, or sugars added. Traditional Lambic is living, cultural heritage rooted in the Zenne valley!
