Season 2019-2020, Assemblage #41. Bottled on 13/02/20. "The one that knows it all, still has to be born” as Armand would say. From time to time, we still get surprised by some of the results after blending lambics. Like this Golden Doesjel. While it was intended to be a Golden Blend, and despite the use of very potent jyoung lambic, the fermentation in the bottle did not continue. And it remained flat. This blend was made with lambics from three barrels, originating from three brews with three different brewers (of which 50% 3 Fonteinen brewed lambic). A nice gentle sipper."

Season 2022-2023 Assemblage #70. Bottled on 16/05/2023. "For this specific Zenne y Frontera, we blended not less than seven barrels of Oloroso from the Josefa Perez bodega. Situated in one of the oldest quarters of Jerez de la Frontera, in the shadow of the Iglesia de Santiago, most of the barrels were sold in 2006 to Urium. Today, the family keeps a low inventory of barrels and sherry to provide us with. We used lambikken originating from seven barrels and eleven brews; more than 60% of the cereals were grown in Pajottenland. The weighted average of this blend upon bottling was about 36 months. A small part of the blend was bottled on magnums."

Season 2022-2023 Assemblage #67. Bottled on 09/05/2023. "For this specific Zenne y Frontera, we blended ten different lambikken, matured on both Oloroso, Amontillado, Palo Cortado and Pedro Ximénez barrels. This bouquet of sherry lambikken originate in total of ten different original barrels and nine different brews. The weighted average age of this blend upon bottling is a staggering 40 months. More than 1/3 of the lambikken was brewed with locally sourced Pajottenland grains. 100% 3 Fonteinen."

Season 2022-2023 Assemblage #19. Bottled on 21/12/2022. "In April 2022, a few of our team went to the Basque Country on a culinary trip. At a lunch at the Asador Extebarri, we met up with Marco Tinessa, winemaker-owner of the magnificent Ognostro winery, Campania, Italy. After a few tasty bottles of wine and geuze, we decided to work together. For this small batch Druif, we macerated Fiano pomace for a tad over two months, before blending and bottling. We used three-year old lambikken only, rendering the weighted average age up to 36 months. The final fruit intensity is 300 grams of Fiano pomace per litre of Druif. "

After a few tasty bottles of wine and geuze, we decided to work together. For this small batch Druif, we macerated Aglianico pomace for over four months.

Season 2022-2023 Assemblage #47. Bottled on 17/02/2023. "We met with ‘JF’ Ginglinger for the first time at the harvest of 2019. Armand opened some of this Gewürztraminer Macération for the team, as he was blown away by the unfiltered and complex wine. A warm friendship between 3F and JF and his family grew from that special moment… For this Druif, we macerated Ginglinger’s Riesling grapes on selected three- and five-year old lambik. We macerated the organic grapes for five months and on an oak barrel. The weighted average age of the blend is more than 39 months. The final fruit intensity is 307 grams of Riesling grapes per litre of Druif."

Two thirds of the lambikken have been brewed by Brouwerij 3 Fonteinen, one third by Lindemans. The oldest lambik has been brewed in October 2019. This renders the weighted average age to more than 33 months. The final fruit proportion is 388 grams of Moesel-grown and hand-picked peaches per litre of Wijnbergperzik."

Season 2021-2022. Bottled on 28/062/2022. "For this Strenge Winter, we brewed a full malt wort with the addition of candied sugar on the coolship. This wort was brewed on April 16th 2020. We left it for more than two years to age on three different barrels. Upon bottling, we blended with some young lambik for continued bottle fermentation, as well as a small part of reduced wort from a Nocturne brew. The weighted average age of the blend upon bottling was therefore more than 23 months."

The oldest lambik was brewed in January 2019 and was later on matured on an Oloroso barrel from Josefa Perez. As this old portion (and barrels) covers a considerable part of the lambik volume, the resulting weighted average of this blend is more than 34 months.

For both maceration and blending, we used over 90% of old lambics, both two-, three- and four-year old. The weighted average of this blend upon bottling is therefore almost 25 months. The final fruit intensity is 304 grams of plums per litre of finished Pruim. The largest part of the fourteen brews used comes from smaller barrels and are 3 Fonteinen-brewed.

For even longer cellar ageing."

Season 2020-2021, Assemblage #83. Bottled 12/10/2021."This kriekenlambik is the result of a maceration of sour cherries for more than eight months on young lambik, afterwards blended with some more soft lambik to balance it all out. We aimed for a kriekenlambik (so remaining flat). We used lambikken from three different barrels and eight different brews. The weighted average age of the kriekenlambik upon bottling was 24 months.

The lambikken come from twelve different barrels and eleven different brews. This blend consists of 60% 3 Fonteinen lambik. The final fruit is at 340 grams of sour cherries per litre of this Oude Kriek."
