wijnbergperzik

At first glance, peaches and grapes have little in common, but on closer inspection, you'll see that the two plants appreciate the same habitat: both like the same climate, thrive in the same soil, require very similar nutrients and a comparable amount of water. For this reason, there are countless peach trees on the vineyards of the world and there is even a subcategory of peach that refers to this location. The vineyard peach is a fruit that is traditionally grown in vineyards. A tasty speciality among these is the vineyard peach from the Moselle. The Moselle is a wine-growing region with a centuries-old tradition and a place where the peach has long been part of the cultural landscape.

The 3 Fonteinen brewery from Belgium appreciates the exquisite taste of this special peach and therefore places it at the center of the beer of the same name: Wijnbergperzik is a lambic that has been stored for four months on peaches from the Moselle.

3 Fonteinen Wijnbergperzik is based on a mixture of lambics aged for different lengths of time and flows into the glass in a beautiful orange-gold color. A fleeting hint of foam forms and smells seductively of juicy peach. The taste follows the olfactory first impression and brings exuberant peach notes, fruity acidity, citrus notes, earthy oak and floral hops to the tongue.
